Pack up all my care and woe, here I go, singing low
Bye, bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me, wugar’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.
