Little birdy, little birdy |
|
What makes you fly so high? |
|
It's because |
|
I am a birdy |
|
And I'm not afraid to die |
|
Little birdy, little birdy |
|
Come sing me your song |
|
I've a short time to be here with you |
|
And a long time, to be gone |
|
Little birdy, little birdy |
|
What makes your wing so blue? |
|
It's because |
|
I've been a-grievin' |
|
Grievin' after you |
|
Little birdy, little birdy |
|
Come sing me your song |
|
I've a short time to be here with you |
|
And a long time, to be gone |
|
Little birdy, little birdy |
|
What makes your head so red? |
|
After all that |
|
I have been through |
|
It's a wonder |
|
I ain't dead |
|
Little birdy, little birdy |
|
Come sing me your song |
|
I've a short time to be here with you |
|
And a long time, to be gone |
