Little Birdie

1 5
Little birdie little birdie
1
Won’t you sing to me your song
5
Got a short time to stay here
1
And a long time to be gone
 

Rather be in some dark hollow
Where the sun don’t ever shine
Than for you to be another man’s darlin’
And to know that you’ll never be mine

Little birdie little birdie
What makes you fly so high
When you know that my true lover
Is waiting in the sky

Little birdie little birdie
Won’t you sing to me your song
You’ve casued me lots of trouble
And you caused me to do wrong
