Bye Bye Blackbird

Pack up all my care and woe

Here I go, singing low

Bye-bye, blackbird

Where somebody waits for me

Sugar's sweet and so is he

Bye, bye blackbird

No one here can love and understand me

Oh, what hard-luck stories they all hand me

Make my bed, light the light, I'll arrive late

tonight

Blackbird, toot-a-lou
