Winter's Come and Gone Lyrics
Oh little red bird
Come to my window sill
Been so lonesome
Shaking that morning chill
Oh little red bird
Open your mouth and say
Been so lonesome
Just about flown away
So long now I've been out
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
Oh little bluebird
Pearly feather breast
Five cold nickels all I got left
Oh little bluebird
What am I gonna do
Five cold nickels
Ain't gonna see me through
So long now I've been out
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
Oh little blackbird
On my wire line
Dark as trouble
In this heart of mine
Poor little blackbird
Sings a worried song
Dark as trouble
'Til winter's come and gone
So long now I've been out
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
So long now I've been out
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
Come to my window sill
Been so lonesome
Shaking that morning chill
Oh little red bird
Open your mouth and say
Been so lonesome
Just about flown away
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
Pearly feather breast
Five cold nickels all I got left
Oh little bluebird
What am I gonna do
Five cold nickels
Ain't gonna see me through
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
On my wire line
Dark as trouble
In this heart of mine
Poor little blackbird
Sings a worried song
Dark as trouble
'Til winter's come and gone
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
In the rain and snow
But winter's come and gone
A little bird told me so
