Pretty bluebird, by my window Won't you stay with me today I've been feelin' sad and lonesome Since my darlin' went away Please, don't leave me, pretty bluebird Lookin' through my windowpane I'm so blue and lost without him And I want him back again It seems like such a long time Since he held me tight I wish that I could see him And be with him tonight Won't you help me, pretty bluebird Take my message 'cross the sea I'll be waiting, pretty bluebird Till you bring him back to me I'll be waiting, pretty bluebird Till you bring him back to me
