Red-Winged Blackbird

Lyrics

Oh cant you see that pretty little bird
 Singing with all his heart and soul
 He's got a blood red spot on his wing
 And all the rest of him's black as coal
 Of all the colors i ever did see
 Red and black are the ones i dread
 Oh when a man spills blood on the coal
 They carry him down from the coalmines dead
 Oh fly away you redwinged bird
 Leave behind the miners wife
 She'll dream about you when your gone
 She'll dream about you all her life
 Oh cant you see that pretty little bird
 Singing with all his heart and soul
 He's got a blood red spot on his wing
 And all the rest of him's black as coal
