Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Talk to me, baby

[Verse 2]

Blackbird, blackbird

Singing the blues all day

Right outside of my door

[Verse 3]

Blackbird, blackbird

Gotta be on my way

When there's sunshine galore

[Verse 4]

Pack up all my care and woe

Here I go, singing low

Bye bye blackbird

[Verse 5]

Where somebody waits for me

Sugar's sweet, so is she

Bye bye blackbird

[Verse 6]

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

[Verse 7]

Yeah, yeah

[Verse 8]

Bluebird, bluebird

Calling me far away

I've been waiting for you

[Verse 9]

Bluebird, bluebird

This is my lucky day

My, my dreams will come true

[Verse 10]

So pack up all my cares and woe

Here I go, singing low

Bye bye blackbird

[Verse 11]

Where somebody waits for me

Sugar's sweet, so is she

Bye bye blackbird

[Verse 12]

No one here can love or understand me

Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me

So make my bed and light the light

I'll be home late tonight

Blackbird bye, bye

[Verse 13]

Blackbird bye, bye

Blackbird bye, bye
