Bye Bye Blackbird Songtext
von Bobby Short

No one here can love and understand me
Oh, what hard-luck stories they all hand me

Pack up all my cares and woes
Here I go, swingin′ low
Bye, bye, blackbird
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet and 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

I've been all over the east and the west
In search of clover to feather my nest
Bye, bye, blackbird

I have a daydream the same as you do
Why would a daydream have to be hoodoo?
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
