Now, bluebird, bluebird

Please take this letter down south for me

Now, bluebird, bluebird

Please take this letter down south for me

Now, you can tell my baby I'm up here in St. Louis

Oh, but I'm just as blue as I can be

Now bluebird, when you get to Jackson

I want you to fly down on Shannon Street

Now bluebird when you get to Jackson

I want you to fly down on Shannon Street

Well, but I don't want you to stop flyin'

Until you find Miss Lacey Belle for me

Now bluebird, when you find Miss Lacey Belle

I want you to please give her my best regard

Now bluebird, when you find Miss Lacey Belle

Oh, give her my best regard

Well, said you can tell her I'm up here in St. Louis

But these times is awful doggone hard

Play it for me, you know how to ask her

Sing it about my baby, too

Now bluebird, she may not be at home

But please knock on her do

Now bluebird, she may not be at home

But please knock on her do

Well, said she may be right across the street

Visitin' her next door neighbor, you know
