Blackbird
She knows how he lives, she's seen it all before
Oh, he told us all with his own words "I'm still after more"
So at night, she prays crying out loud to the Lord
"What kind of man revolves his plans 'round searching for evermore?"
He makes his way from the bottom
Find that dollar out there in the cold
All the while, she's sitting patient
Waiting for him to come home
He says "Oh, my darling, I can't stop it!
I am built to roam
But so that I am always with you
Think of me out there as that blackbird on the porch."
Yeah-ahh
Aah
Oh-ah
He's fire, she's ice, and they smoke out every day
Temporary resolutions make 'em feel like they're okay
He says "Baby, don't you worry, soon I'll give you what you want."
She don't know how long she'll be waiting for, but she keeps holding on
He makes his way from the bottom
Find that dollar out there in the cold
All the while, she's sitting patient
Waiting for him to come home
He says "Oh, my darling, I can't stop it!
I am built to roam
But so that I am always with you
Think of me out there as that blackbird on the porch."
Oh, he told us all with his own words "I'm still after more"
So at night, she prays crying out loud to the Lord
"What kind of man revolves his plans 'round searching for evermore?"
He makes his way from the bottom
Find that dollar out there in the cold
All the while, she's sitting patient
Waiting for him to come home
He says "Oh, my darling, I can't stop it!
I am built to roam
But so that I am always with you
Think of me out there as that blackbird on the porch."
Yeah-ahh
Aah
Oh-ah
He's fire, she's ice, and they smoke out every day
Temporary resolutions make 'em feel like they're okay
He says "Baby, don't you worry, soon I'll give you what you want."
She don't know how long she'll be waiting for, but she keeps holding on
He makes his way from the bottom
Find that dollar out there in the cold
All the while, she's sitting patient
Waiting for him to come home
He says "Oh, my darling, I can't stop it!
I am built to roam
But so that I am always with you
Think of me out there as that blackbird on the porch."
