Ode to a Lone Bird

from The Cimarron Banks by Amy Annelle

/

lyrics

The bird, oh he go lightly
But sometimes, a bird get lonely
Oh, the birdie, does the birdie
Birdie need some company

I know you got a big cock
Cause your girlfriend's got a big mouth
And I hear you'll be headed down south
By way of the High Desert Flyway

And I'll fly with you for a while, old friend
And know that this is no end, but a lifetime of
Hello again, again

Hello again, hello again, my friend
Low again, low again, old friend

I know you could do better
If you and I were together
But I ain't no homewrecker
No, I ain't gonna wreck no home
When I'm tryin' to build my own

Yes, everybody needs a home, a home
And someday, I'll have you in mine
Maybe tomorrow, honey, someplace down the line

So fly with me for a while, old friend
And know that this is no end, but a lifetime of
Hello again, again

Hello again, hello again my friend
Low again, low again, old friend
Dear friend

The bird, oh he go lightly
But sometimes, a bird get lonely
Oh the birdie, does the birdie
Birdie need some company
