Little Birdie, little birdie Come and sing me a song Got a short time to be here Got a long time to be gone Little Birdie, little birdie What makes you fly so high? It's because I1m a true little bird And I do not fear to die Refrain: And if the grace is coming I say just let it come It won1t need no TV preacher Beating on their drum Little Birdie, little birdie What makes me love you? It's because you see me in my sorrow But I1m searching for a patch of blue Just like you Little Birdie, little birdie Come and sing me one song I got a short time to be here Got a long time to be gone
