[Verse]
Pack up all my cares and woes
Feeling low, here I go
I should have dialed (Bye-bye, blackbird), oh, blackbird now
Where somebody waits for me
Sugar's sweet, so is she
(Bye), Said, "Bye-bye (Bye), blackbird (Blackbird)"
[Chorus]
No one seems to love, or understand me
Oh, how I'd still rather looking and handling me, baby
(Ooh)
Where somebody shines the light (Ooh)
I'm coming on home tonight now
(Bye), I want to say, "Bye-bye (Bye), ooh (Blackbird), a blackbird"
[Bridge]
(Bye-bye, blackbird)
(Bye-bye, blackbird)
[Chorus]
Nobody seems to love, or understand me
Oh, how all the stories you keep up on handling me
(Ooh)
I should've have somebody hide the light (Ooh)
Yes, I'm coming on home tonight now
(Bye), Oh Lord, yeah (Bye), I wanna say (Blackbird), "Goodnight, blackbird" Lord have mercy, for the love of my life
