Sheet Music Singer - So the Bluebirds and the Blackbirds Got Together
Look at my doorstep, look at my doorstep
Look at the blackbirds, look at the bluebirds
Look at the bad luck, look at the good luck there
Never saw bluebirds mingle with blackbirds
Never saw bluebirds doin' things backwards
Never knew good luck ever would perch with care
I overheard these birdies talkin' today
And now I know just why they're acting this way:
First the bluebirds said, "We've got to have sunny weather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
Then the blackbirds said, "We're birds of a diff'rent feather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
And when they talked it over, they let the blackbirds bring rain
And all the bluebirds then agreed to bring the sunshine again
For we can't have rain or sunshine that lasts forever
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
First the bluebirds said, "We've got to have sunny weather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
Then the blackbirds said, "We're birds of a diff'rent feather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
And when they talked it over, they let the blackbirds bring rain
And all the bluebirds then agreed to bring the sunshine again
For we can't have rain or sunshine that lasts forever
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
Needn't take my word, take a look skyward
Look at the blackbirds, look at the bluebirds
As they come nearer, listen to what they say
Feathers all ruffled, ev'ry throat throbbin'
Not a voice muffled 'cause they're hob-nobbin'
Something seems wrong and this is their judgement day
Just like the birdies perchin' outside my door
I know exactly what they're arguing for:
First the bluebirds said, "We've got to have sunny weather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
Then the blackbirds said, "We're birds of a diff'rent feather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
And when they talked it over, they let the blackbirds bring rain
And all the bluebirds then agreed to bring the sunshine again
For we can't have rain or sunshine that lasts forever
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
First the bluebirds said, "We've got to have sunny weather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
Then the blackbirds said, "We're birds of a diff'rent feather"
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
And when they talked it over, they let the blackbirds bring rain
And all the bluebirds then agreed to bring the sunshine again
For we can't have rain or sunshine that lasts forever
So the bluebirds and the blackbirds got together
