Nina Simone Blackbird lyrics
Blackbird lyrics by Nina Simone
Why you wanna fly, Blackbird? You ain't ever gonna fly
No place big enough for holding all the tears you're gonna cry
'Cause your mama's name was lonely and your daddy's name was pain
And they call you little sorrow 'cause you'll never love again
So, why you wanna fly, Blackbird? You ain't ever gonna fly
You ain't got no one to hold you, you ain't got no one to care
If you'd only understand, dear, nobody wants you anywhere
So, why you wanna fly, Blackbird? You ain't ever gonna fly
