Bye Bye Blackbird
Pick up all my care and woe
Here I go singing low
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is he
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
Or what hard luck stories they all hand me
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, bye bye.
Here I go singing low
Bye bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is he
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love or understand me
Or what hard luck stories they all hand me
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, bye bye.
