PACK UP ALL MY CARES AND WOES,
HERE I GO, SINGING LOW,
BYE, BYE, BLACKBIRD

WHERE SOMEBODY WAITS FOR ME,
SUGAR IS 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

PACK UP ALL MY CARES AND WOES,
HERE I GO, SINGING LOW,
BYE, BYE, BLACKBIRD

WHERE SOMEBODY WAITS FOR ME,
SUGAR IS SWEET, SO IS SHE,
BYE, BYE, BYE, BYE, BLACKBIRD

I SAID, NO ONE HERE CAN LOVE AND UNDERSTAND ME,
OH, WHAT HARD LUCK STORIES THEY ALL HAND ME

SO, MAKE MY BED AND LIGHT THE LIGHT,
I'LL ARRIVE LATE TONIGHT,
BLACKBIRD, BYE, BYE

MAKE MY BED AND LIGHT THE LIGHT,
I'LL ARRIVE LATE TONIGHT,
BLACKBIRD,
I SAID BLACKBIRD,
I SAID BLACKBIRD,
OH, BLACKBIRD, BYE, BYE
