Red-Winged Blackbird

[Chorus]
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road

[Verse 1]
He'll be there beside the river
When winter finally breaks its bones
He'll be king among the rushes
He'll be master of his home

[Chorus]
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road

[Verse 2]
Safe as Moses in the rushes
Makes his home on the river wide
Every time I hear him singing
Makes me feel like spring inside

[Chorus]
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road

[Verse 3]
He'll be in there singing his heart out
He'll be telling stories too
Of where he went to winter last year
Of how's he going back there too

[Chorus]
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
Thought I heard a red-winged blackbird
Red-winged blackbird down my road
