Blackbird, blackbird, singing the blues all day
Right outside of my door.
Blackbird, blackbird, why do you sit and say
There's no sunshine in store.
All thru the winter you hung around,
Now I begin to feel homeward bound.
Blackbird, blackbird, gotta be on my way
Where there's sunshine galore.
Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go, singing low,
Bye bye blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet, so is she,
Bye bye blackbird.
No one here can love and understand me.
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me.
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight. Blackbird, bye bye
Bluebird, bluebird, calling me far away,
I've been longing for you.
Bluebird, bluebird, what do I hear you say
Skies are turning to blue.
I'm like a flower that's fading here
Where every hour is one long tear.
Bluebird, bluebird, this is my lucky day.
Now my dreams will come true.
