Chet Atkins "Bye Bye Blackbird"

Lyrics


Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go,
Singing low,
Bye bye blackbird,
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet, so is she,
Bye bye
Blackbird!

No one here can love or understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me,
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll be home late tonight,
Blackbird bye bye.

Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go,
Singing low,
Bye (bye) bye (bye) blackbird.
(tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo)
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet, so is she,
Bye (bye) bye (bye) blackbird.
(tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo tchoo)

No one here can love or understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me,
(Oh oh oh oh)
Make my bed, light that light,
I'll be home late tonight,
Blackbird...

Make my bed and light the light,
I'll be home late tonight,
Leave you bird jet in the sky
Toodle oo!
Farewell!
Bye bye!

Blackbird
(Blackbird,Blackbird)
We'll take the flying little blackbird bye!

Doug, If you Love Chet Atkins theres nothing Daffy about you...LOL

@rotory2002 Thanks! Actually I adopted the name because I was performing magic shows for kids functions, and I needed something catchy. There's a guy out there doing shows whose name is Billy, and he bills himself as "Silly Billy" I couldn't steal that. I had to come up with something that goes along with Doug. AND, since I do impersonations of all the Mel Blanc Looney Toons characters, including Bugs and Daffy, the name just naturally feel into place. But yes, I do love ol' Chet!

can never get enough of Chet's playing. Richard Smith does a nice job on this too.

Thanks for posting Doug
