Lyrics

Blackbird, Blackbird Singing the blues all day right outside my door Blackbird, Blackbird Why do you sit and say, ‽There's no sunshine in store� All through 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 or 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 Blackbird, Blackbird Calling me far away, I've been longing for you Blackbird, Blackbird What do I hear you say, ‽Skies are turning 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 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 or 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
