Be Good Tanyas - Littlest Birds lyrics

rate me

Well I feel like an old hobo

I'm sad, lonesome and blue

I was fair as the summer day

Now the summer days are through

You pass through places

And places pass through you

But you carry 'em with you

On the souls of your travellin' shoes

WellI love you so dearly I love you so clearly

I wake you up in the mornin' so early

Just to tell you I got the wanderin' blues

I got the wanderin' blues

And I'm gonna quit these ramblin' ways

One of these day soon

And I'll 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 ramblin' footsteps of a wanderin' child

And I'm lonesome as a lonesome whippoorwill

Singing these blues with a warble and a trill

But I'm not to blue to fly

No, I'm not to blue to fly cause

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sign the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

Well I love you so dearly

I love you so fearlessly

I wake you up in the mornin' so early

Just to tell you I got the wanderin' blues

I got the wanderin' blues

And I don't want to leave you

I love you through and through

Oh I left my baby on a pretty blue train

And I sang my song to the cold and the rain

I had the wanderin' blues

And I sang those wanderin' blues

And I'm gonna quit these ramblin' ways

One of these days soon

And I'll 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

**I don't care if the sun don't shine

I don't care if nothin' is mine

I don't care if I'm nervous with you

I'll do my lovin' in the wintertime

**Syd Barrett
