Bluebird, if you get to Jackson
Please fly down on Shannon Street
Bluebird, if you get to Jackson
Please fly down on Shannon Street
I don′t want you to quit flyin'
′Till you find Miss 'Daisy' Belle for me


Lacey Belle, she maybe not be at home
Please knock upon her do′
Well, she may be at home
Please knock upon her do′
Now, she will be maybe wit'
The next do′ neighbor
Bluebird, you don't know

Look-a-here
Ooh, look-a-here, look-a-here
Look-a-here, babe
I mean, look-a-here, look-a-here
I love you, Lacey Belle
Sh-she doesn′t know where, I can't tell

Bluebird, bluebird
Where in the world, you been so long?
Bluebird, bluebird
Where in the world, you been so long?
You must-a been out in Texas
If you had, yo′ hat is on

Gon' sing this time
Ain't gon′ sing no mo′

'Long time ′at he work, last boy'

I′m 'on sing this time
Ain′t gon' sing 'em no mo′
Next time I sail
Be right where I wants to go.
