Blackbird, blackbird singing the blues all day right outside my door
Blackbird, blackbird gotta be on your way
Where there's sunshine galore
All through the winter you just hang around
Now your going back home
Blackbird, blackbird gotta be on your way
Where there's sunshine galore
Pack up all my cares and woes
Here i go, singing low
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar is 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
Pack up all my cares and woes
Here i go, singing low
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar is sweet, so is she
Bye, bye, bye, bye, blackbird
I said, no one here can love and understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
So, make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird, bye, bye
Make my bed and light the light
I'll arrive late tonight
Blackbird
I said blackbird
I said blackbird
Oh, blackbird, bye, bye
