Blackbirds Are Back

3/16/2010 | Song # 415

The Red wing…
Blackbirds are back and they’re singing in the trees
They’re singing in the tees about the breeze

The blackbirds seem to know
Just how to melt the snow
And get the sun to stay…
This may come as a shock
But they each must leave the flock
And stake out their territory

Refrain:
Blackbirds are back and they’re singing in the trees
They’re singing in the tees about the breeze

The grass is turning green
in patches by the road
And though it’s cool it isn’t cold
And all the deer I’ve seen
are so hungry for the green
That it makes them rather bold

Refrain:

When the peepers start to sing
It’s so encouraging
Cuz then you know it’s really Spring
When the peepers start their song
You know it won’t be long
Till you’ll be mowing your lawn

Bridge:
I love you I love you I love you
I love you yes I love you yes I do
I love you I love you yes I love you
Underneath a flawless sky of blue

about

Mark Shepard Albany, New York

Welcome to my “Life In Song” project.

Since 1976, I’ve been obsessively and compulsively writing songs. Some of them are inspired by my own life, my attempts to understand love, life, spirituality, peace and justice.

While I recently have started to get a little recognition, you’ve probably never heard my songs ANYWHERE.

But now you can hear them... here... Download. Share. Thanks!
