Little Birdy

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
