Classic Poem

VERSE 1

Blackbird, blackbird,
Singing the blues all day
Right outside of 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.

REFRAIN

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 and 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 2

Bluebird, bluebird,
Calling me far away.
I've been longing for you.
Bluebird, bluebird,
What do I hear you say,
" Skies are turning to blue " ?
I'm like a flower that's fading here
Where ev'ry hour is one long tear.
Bluebird, bluebird,
This is my lucky day,
Now my dreams will come true.
