Lyrics

[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 your father? Alright! [Verse 1] 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's hidin' somewhere in the trees, blackbird I'll 'ave he [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 girt 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 your father? Alright! [Verse 2] 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] 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 girt 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 your father? Alright! [Verse 3] 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] 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 girt 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 your father? Alright! [Verse 4] No longer can I sleep at night, get peace of any kind That bird'll be the death of me, he's preyin' 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] 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 girt big stick I'll knock 'im down Blackbird I'll 'ave he With a girt 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 your father? Alright!
