Oh little red bird Come to my window sill Been so lonesome Shaking that morning chill Oh little red bird Open your mouth and sing Been so lonesome Just about flown away So long now I've been out In the rain and snow But winter's come and gone A little bird told me so Oh little blue bird Pearly feather breast Five cold nickels all I got left Oh little blue bird What am I gonna do Five cold nickels Ain't gonna see me through So long now I've been out In the rain and snow But winter's come and gone A little bird told me so Oh little black bird On my wire line Dark as trouble In this heart of mine Poor little black bird Sings a worried song Dark as trouble 'Til winter's come and gone So long now I've been out In the rain and snow But winter's come and gone A little bird told me so So long now I've been out In the rain and snow But winter's come and gone A little bird told me so
