[Bb]Where be that Blackbird to? I know where he [F]be.
He be up yon Wurzel tree. And [Eb]I be after [Bb]he.
Now [Bb]I sees he. [Eb]He sees I. [Bb]Buggered if I don't [Eb]get him.
With a [Bb]gert big [F]stick I'll [Eb]knock him [Bb]down. Blackbird I'll '[F]ave [Bb]he.
La la la la la la. la la la la la la. Ow's your father? [F]Alr[Bb]ight.
[VERSE 1]
[Bb]All my life I'm on the farm, working for me [Eb]keep.
[F]Tending pigs and chickens, and them cows and [Bb]sheep.
But everywhere I'm working, there's one who always [Eb]mocks me.
He's [F]hiding somewhere in the trees, blackbird I'll '[Bb]ave he
[VERSE 2]
[Bb]Underneath the open sky, in spring we loves to [Eb]dine.
We [F]likes to hear the flapping of the missus' washing [Bb]line.
We listens to a tuneful song, a blackbird or a [Eb]tit
But [F]on me vest and underpants, he scored a direct [Bb]hit
[VERSE 3]
[Bb]If I go out poaching, a creeping through the [Eb]fields.
[F]With my old retriever, a following at me [Bb]heels.
If I aim me shotgun, at a pheasant in the [Eb]hay.
That [F]bloody blackbird starts his row, and frightens him a[Bb]way.
[VERSE 4]
[Bb]No longer can I sleep at night, get peace of any [Eb]kind
That [F]bird'll be the death of me, he's preying on me [Bb]mind
If I chase him long enough, I'll get'en by and [Eb]by.
And [F]celebrate me victory with a gert big blackbird [Bb]pie
He be up yon Wurzel tree. And [Eb]I be after [Bb]he.
Now [Bb]I sees he. [Eb]He sees I. [Bb]Buggered if I don't [Eb]get him.
With a [Bb]gert big [F]stick I'll [Eb]knock him [Bb]down. Blackbird I'll '[F]ave [Bb]he.
La la la la la la. la la la la la la. Ow's your father? [F]Alr[Bb]ight.
