I have a been a rover, since I was a child
No one to love or care for me
Knocked this world all over, kind of grew up wild
My home is wherever I may be
I'm just breezing along with the breeze,
Trailing the rails, and roamin' the seas
Like the little birdies sing in the trees
Pleasing to live, and living to please
The sky is the only roof I have over my head
And when I'm weary,
Mother nature makes me a bed
I'm just going along as I please
Breezing along, just along with the breeze |
Blackbird, blackbird singing
the blues all day,
right outside my door
Blackbird, blackbird, gotta be on your way,
where there's sunshine in store
All through the winter you just hang around
Now you should be going homeward bound
Blackbird, blackbird, gotta be on your way
Where there's sunshine galore
So I'll pack up all my cares 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 to love and understand me
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
Gonna pack my bags, light the light, I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, Bye bye |
