Fly ye away from my window, little bluebird
Fly ye as far as you can away from here
And let not your song fall upon my ear
Go spread your blue wings and I'll shed my blue tears

For the one that I have loved, she has left me and gone
And I'm in no mood for to hear your sad song

Bring not your light into my dark blue yellow sunshine
Waste not your warmth on the coldness in here
Oh trouble me not, go ye elsewhere
Go light your blue sky and I'll shed my blue tears

For the only one that I have ever loved has gone away
I'm in no mood for the sunshine today

Go spread your blue wings, light your blue sky
I'll shed my blue tears
