Paula Cole - Bye Bye Blackbird Lyrics

Paula Cole Lyrics

"Bye Bye Blackbird"
(originally by Sam Lanin's Dance Orchestra)

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
Oh, bye-bye, blackbird

No one seems to love and understand me
Oh, the hard-luck stories, they all hand me
Well, somebody shines the light, I'm coming home tonight, oh
Blackbird, bye-bye

Pack up all my cares 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 seems to love and understand me
Oh, the hard-luck stories, they all hand me
Well, somebody shines the light, I'm coming home tonight, oh
Blackbird, blackbird
Blackbird, blackbird
Blackbird, bye-bye
