Little Birdie

Two little birdies all in the nest
One little birdie's just a-takin' his rest
Other little birdie jumps in the sky
Fly, little birdie, oh, fly

Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Has your momma been gone too long?
Has your momma been gone too long?

Crocodile waitin' by the river bed
Hasn't had a meal since he don't know when
Lookin' down low, lookin' up high
Little birdie tumbles from the sky

Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Has your momma been gone too long?
Has your momma been gone too long?

Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Has your momma been gone too long?
Has your momma been gone too long?
Little birdie, little birdie

Little birdie, little birdie

Croc says "little fella, don't you know
It's dangerous in this world below
Tales your mom tells are real
Now you're gonna be my evening meal"
Just then come the sound of wings
Momma grabs the birdie and flies

Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Little birdie, why'd you fly so soon?
Has your momma been gone too long?
Has your momma been gone too long?
Has your momma been gone too long?
