Little bird, little bird
I hear you singing
Little bird, little bird
What is your name?

Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill
I hear you singing
Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill
I know your name
Bathed in moonlight
Speckled and brown
I'll be your friend
When you come around

Little bird, little bird
I hear you singing
Little bird little bird
What is your name?

Mourning Dove, Mourning Dove
I hear you singing
Mourning Dove, Mourning Dove
I know your name
Soft and gentle
Looking my way
I’ll be your friend
Stop by any day
Little bird, little bird
I hear you singing
Little bird, little bird
What is your name?

Cardinal, Cardinal
I hear you singing
Cardinal, Cardinal
I know your name
Red and lovely
Out in the snow
I'll be your friend
Tap my window

Little bird, little bird
I hear you singing
Little bird, little bird
What is your name?

Little bird, little bird
Where are you going?
Little bird, little bird
Don't fly away
