Happened on Mainstreet
Dark night in June
Sirens and flashing
All red and blue
They said it was Lucy
Rumors are carried so soon
A stab in the back
Out of the blue
The Mayor would keep
A secret he knew
Lead to believe
All they could do is what they do
There’s gonna be one
Can’t sleep at night
To sing with the blackbird
In the moonlight
Oh, there’s gonna be one
In the dead of night
To sing with the blackbird
Turned out Lucy dated
Billy and Wayne
The latter was missing
A wanted man
Billy’s a cheater
Why rumors said the mayor knew, oh yeah
Himself he found a body
Ashes and bones
No one could tell
Who it was
Authorities stated
All they could do is what they do
There’s gonna be one
Can’t sleep at night
To sing with the blackbird
In the moonlight
Oh, there’s gonna be one
In the dead of night
To sing with the blackbird
Layin‘ down roses there
In the dead of the night
Layin‘ roses down
And steal away
Oh, there’s gonna be one
Can’t sleep at night
To sing with the blackbird
In the moonlight
Oh, there’s gonna be one
In the dead of night
To sing with the blackbird
Layin‘ down roses there
Layin‘ roses down
Sing with the blackbird
In the moonlight
Layin‘ roses down
Leave a secret cry
Sing with the blackbird
Layin‘ down roses there
