Mockin' Bird Hill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, there's peace and good will
You're welcome as the flowers on mockin' bird hill
When the sun in the mornin' peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses 'round my windowsill
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
Of the birds in the treetops on mockin' bird hill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, there's peace and good will
You're welcome as the flowers on mockin' bird hill
When it's late in the evenin' I climb up the hill
And survey all my kingdom while everything's still
Only me and the sky and an old whippoorwill
Singing songs in the twilight on mockin' bird hill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, there's peace and good will
You're welcome as the flowers on mockin' bird hill
Tra la la, tra la, tweedlee dee dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill
