(mark spiro/micheal smotherman)

Down came a blackbird
Set on a fence
Talkin in riddles
Makin no sense
Cause shes gone
Youre babys gone
Down came a blackbird
Perched on pole
Took out a mirror
And said, son, behold
Cause shes gone
Your babys 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 aint comin back and it aint no joke
Shes gone
Youre babys gone

Down came a blackbird
Set by the fire
Said the futures comin at you like a freight train
And youre walkin a wire
Cause shes gone
Youre babys 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 aint comin back and it aint no joke
Shes gone
Youre babys gone

She says she doesnt want a man who hangs around the house
Who doesnt say a word unless hes shootin off his mouth
Theres got to be a better way to be a lovin wife
If she stays here shell end up her waitress for life

Down came a blackbird
Set on a fence
Talkin in riddles
And makin absolutely perfect sense
Cause shes gone
Youre babys 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 aint comin back and it aint no joke
Shes gone
Youre babys gone

Down came a blackbird
Down came a blackbird
