Redbird, redbird, soon in the mornin’,
Redbird (4x) soon in the mornin’, (2)
Don’t you know the day is a dawnin’,
Redbird. Iday is a-dawnin’, redbird)
Jaybird, jaybird sings in the cedar…
Squirrels don’t like him and I don’t either…
Catbrd, catbird thinks he’s a robin, catbird, (2)
Imitatin’, lyin’ and a-stealin’,
Ooh that catbird I don’t believe him, catbird.
Blackbird, blackbird sings in the evenin’, blackbird, (2)
Blackbird, blackbird sings in the eveni’,
His wife died and he’s still grievin’, blackbird,
(He’s still grievin’, blackbird)
Redbird, redbird, soon in the mornin’, redbird, (2)
Redbird, redbird soon in the mornin’,
Don’t you know the day is a-dawnin’,
Redbird, soon in the mornin’.VIEW COMPLETE FEWER LYRICS
