[Chorus]
Where be that Blackbird to? I know where he be,
He be up yon Wurzel tree, And I be after he!
Now I sees he, And he sees I,
Buggered if I don’t get ‘en
With a gurt big stick I’ll knock ‘im down
Blackbird I’ll ‘ave he!
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
‘Ow’s ‘E Father?
(Audience Answer) Alright!
All
me life I’m on the farm, workin’ for me
keep
Tendin’ pigs and chickens, and they cows and
sheep
But everywhere I’m workin’, there’s
one who always mocks me
He hidin' somewhere in the trees, blackbird I’ll
‘ave he!
[Chorus]
Underneath
the open sky in spring we loves to dine
We likes to ‘ear the flappin’ of the missus
washin’ line
We listens to a tuneful song, a blackbird or a tit,
But on me vest and underpants he scored a direct hit!
[Chorus]
If
I goes out poachin’, a creepin’ through
the fields,
With me old retriever, a followin’ at me heels.
If I aim me shotgun at a pheasant in the hay
That bloody blackbird starts his row and frightens
him away!
[Chorus]
No
longer can I sleep at night, get peace of any kind,
That bird’ll be the death of me, he’s
prayin’ on me mind!
If I chase him long enough, I’ll get ‘en
by and by,
And celebrate me vict’ry with a girt big blackbird
pie!
[Chorus]
