Mockingbird

Lyrics

Moch- (yeah)
 Ing (yeah)
 Bird (yeah)
 Yeah (yeah)
 Mocking bird
 Everybody, have you heard?
 He's gonna buy me a mocking bird
 Well, now, you said mockingbird don't sing
 He's gonna buy me a diamond ring
 And if that diamond ring don't shine (it don't shine)
 He's gonna surely break this heart of mine
 And that's why (oh, yeah) I keep on tellin' it
 Say a thing, (yeah, yeah), oh-oh-oh, (yeah, yeah)
 I, I know I love him and I can't tell him so (I can't tell him)
 That I, I, I, I love him and it's true he doesn't know (he gon' buy me)
 He doesn't know (a diamond ring)
 And if that diamond ring don't shine (it don't shine)
 He's gonna surely break this heart of mine (this heart of mine)
 And that's why (that's why) I keep on tellin' it
 Say a thing, (yeah, yeah), oh-oh-oh, (yeah, yeah)
 Everybody, have you heard? (Have you heard?)
 He's gonna buy me a mocking bird (a mocking bird)
 Say it now mockingbird don't sing (it don't sing)
 He's gonna buy me a diamond ring (a diamond ring)
 And if that diamond ring don't shine (it don't shine)
 He's gonna surely break this heart of mine (heart of mine)
 And that's why (yes, he will) I keep on tellin' it
 Say a thing, (yeah, yeah), oh-oh-oh, (yeah, yeah)
 I, I know that I felt I love him and I can't tell him so (a mocking bird)
 That I, I, I, I love him and it's true he doesn't know (he gon' buy me)
 He doesn't know (a diamond ring)
 And if that diamond ring don't shine (it don't shine)
 He's gonna surely break this heart of mine (heart of mine)
 And that's why (yes, he will) I keep on tellin' it
 Say a thing, (yeah, yeah), oh-oh-oh, (yeah, yeah)
 Everybody, have you heard? (Have you heard?)
 He's gonna buy me a mocking bird (a mocking bird)
 Say it now mockingbird don't sing (it don't sing)
 He's gonna buy me a diamond ring
