I'm A Little Blackbird Looking For A Bluebird Lyrics - Singles - Florence Mills

Never had no happiness 

never had no fun caress 

I'm just a little o' beat up humanity, born on a friday outcast 

Blue as anyone can be 

clouds all I ever see 

And if the sun forsakes no one, why don't it shine on me 

I'm a little blackbird looking for a bluebird ooh 

you know little blackbirds, get a little lonesome to 

I've been all over from east to the west 

in search of someone to feather my nest 

why can't I find one the same as you do 

the answer must be 

that I'm a hoodoo 

I'm a little jazzboat looking for a rainbow through 

building fairy castles, just like all the white folks do 

forlorn and crying, my heart is sighing 

but wise ol' Al says to keep on trying 

I'm a little blackbird looking for a bluebird ooh
