Walkin' to Missouri Lyrics
Walkin' To Missouri - Tony Brent
Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
He can't afford to fly
Got a penny for a Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
Got a teardrop in his eye
I hope my story don't make you cry
But this birdie flew too high
He flew from his old Missouri home
He fell right into the city ways like dancin' in cabarets
From party to party he would roam
Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
He can't afford to fly
Got a penny for a Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
Got a teardrop in his eye
He met a birdie who looked so nice
A real bird of paradise
Good lookin' but fickle in the heart
She gave him kisses and gave him sighs
But oh how she told him lies
'Cause she loved another from the start
Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
He can't afford to fly
Got a penny for a Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
Got a teardrop in his eye
His dreams are battered his feathers bent
Now he hasn't got a cent
He feels like his heart is gonna break
So if he ever walks up to you
Please throw him a crumb or two
'Cause you could have made the same mistake
Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
He can't afford to fly
Got a penny for a Poor little robin
Walkin' walkin' walkin' to missouri
Got a teardrop in his eye
Poor little robin
Got a teardrop in his eye
