Lyrics : Sing Little Birdie

Sing, sing, sing, little birdie
Sing, sing, sing it

There's a bird on a branch
There's a branch on a tree
There's a tree in the meadow and that's where I long to be

'Neath that bird on a branch
'Neath that branch on a tree
'Neath that tree in the meadow where you said you love me

Sing, little birdie, sing your song
Sing, you'll help our love along
Sing, little birdie up above
Sing a song of love

There's a bird on a branch
There's a branch on a tree
Where we carved our initials there for all the world to see

'Neath that bird on a branch
'Neath that branch on a tree
Where we promised our true love for all eternity

Sing, little birdie, sing your song
Sing, you'll help our love along
Sing, little birdie up above
Sing a song of love

When the years pass on by
And we're wed, you and I
And the bluebirds are singing their sweet love songs in the sky

We will dream of that bird
On a branch, on a tree
And that tree in the meadow where you said you love me

Sing, little birdie, sing your song
Sing, you'll help our love along
Sing, little birdie up above
Sing a song of love

Sing, little birdie, sing your song
Sing, you'll help our love along
Sing, little birdie up above
Sing a song of love
