Down came a blackbird Set on a fence Talkin' in riddles Makin' no sense 'Cause she's gone You're baby's gone Down came a blackbird Perched on pole Took out a mirror And said Son behold 'Cause she's gone Your baby's gone Gone like a dollar spent on a drink Head hangin' over the kitchen sink Gone like the wind through a cabin door Never gonna blow that way no more Gone like the song of a mockingbird Laughing at every little thing he heard Gone like a dream in a puff of smoke She ain't comin' back and it ain't no joke She's gone Your baby's gone Down came a blackbird Set by the fire Said the future's comin' at you like a freight train And you're walkin' the wire 'Cause she's gone Your baby's gone Gone like a dollar spent on a drink Head hangin' over the kitchen sink Gone like a dream in a puff of smoke She ain't comin' back and it ain't no joke She's gone Your baby's gone She says she doesn't want a man who hangs around the house Who doesn't say a word unless he's shootin' off his mouth There's got to be a better way to be a lovin' wife If she stays here she'll end up his waitress for life Down came a blackbird Set on a fence Talkin' in riddles And makin' absolutely perfect sense 'Cause she's gone Your baby's gone Gone like a dollar spent on a drink Head hangin' over the kitchen sink Gone like the wind through a cabin door Never gonna blow that way no more Gone like the song of a mockingbird Laughing at every little thing he heard Gone like a dream in a puff of smoke She ain't comin' back and it ain't no joke She's gone Your baby's gone Down came a blackbird Down came a blackbird
