The Littlest Birds

Lyrics

Well, I feel like an old hobo, I'm sad, lonesome and blue
 I was fair as a summer's day, now the summer days are through
 You pass through places and places pass through you
 But you carry them with you on the soles of your travellin' shoes
 ♪
 Well, I love you so dearly, I love you so clearly
 I wake you up in the morning, so early just to tell you
 I got the wandering blues, I got the wandering blues
 And I'm going to quit these rambling ways one of these days soon
 And I sing, the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 ♪
 Well, it's times like these I feel so small
 And wild like the rambling footsteps of a wandering child
 And I'm lonesome as a lonesome whippoorwill
 Singing these blues with a warble and a trill
 But I'm not too blue to fly, no I'm not too blue to fly
 'Cause the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 ♪
 But I love you so dearly, I love you so fearlessly
 I wake you up in the morning so early, just to tell you
 I've got the wandering blues, I've got the wandering blues
 And I don't want to leave you, I love you through and through
 Well, I left my baby on a pretty blue train
 And I sang my songs to the cold and the rain
 And I had the wandering blues, and I sang those wandering blues
 And I'm gonna quit these rambling ways one of these days soon
 And I sing, the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
 ♪
 I don't care if the sun don't shine
 I don't care if nothing is mine
 I don't care if I'm nervous with you
 I'll do my loving in the wintertime
