Текст песни Red-Winged Blackbird - Kathy Mattea

Oh cant you see that pretty little bird
Singing with all his heart and soul
He's got a blood red spot on his wing
And all the rest of him's black as coal

Of all the colors i ever did see
Red and black are the ones i dread
Oh when a man spills blood on the coal
They carry him down from the coalmines dead

Oh fly away you redwinged bird
Leave behind the miners wife
She'll dream about you when your gone
She'll dream about you all her life

Oh cant you see that pretty little bird
Singing with all his heart and soul
He's got a blood red spot on his wing
And all the rest of him's black as coal
