jimmy driftwood - my black bird has gone lyrics

[verse 1]
she had the soul of an angel
she had a heart that was pure
her lips were sweet as the hummingbird’s mouth
all filled with a sweet honeydew
she taught me how to be humble
she taught me how i should pray
i thought i would die when she said goodbye
and they carried my black bird away

[chorus]
my black bird is gone
my black bird is gone
my black bird is gone away
they came with a chain
they called her sweet name
and they carried my black bird away
[verse 2]
list to the roar of the cannons
look at the battle array
it’s all because of the tears that i shed
when they carried my black bird away
angels a+singing in heaven
hushed their sweet songs when they heard
the cries of my heart when they tore me apart
from the arms of my pretty black bird

[chorus]
my black bird is gone
my black bird is gone
my black bird is gone away
they came with a chain
they called her sweet name
and they carried my black bird away
