Yellow Bird

Yellow bird

Up high in banana tree

Yellow bird

You sit all alone like me

Did your lady friend leave your nest again

That is very sad

Makes me feel so bad

You can fly away

In the sky away

You're more lucky than me

I also had a pretty girl

She's not with me today

They're all the same

The pretty girls

Take tenderness

Then they fly away

Yellow bird

Up high in banana tree

Yellow bird

You sit all alone like me

Let her fly away

In the sky away

Pick a town and

Soon

Pick from night to noon

Black and yellow

You like banana too

They might pick you someday

Wish that I were a yellow bird

I'd fly away with you

But I am not a yellow bird

So here I sit

Nothin' else to do

Yellow bird

Yellow bird

Yellow bird
