Lyrics

The Bird Is in the Tree
 
On a summer day down at the bay, In the shade green and the clear sky blue
In the morning dew
Went for a walk down the fire lane, In the tall woods where the blue jays play
At the break of day
 
The bird is in the tree and he’s signing for me
The bird is in the tree and he’s signing for me
 
Then a little sprite came into my life, Jumped from a box and made me smile
I saw the light
And the night hawk flew in the summer sky, Then I knew for the rest of my life
The reason why
The bird is in the tree and he’s flying for me (x2)
The bird is in the tree and he’s signing for me
 
The kookaburra laughs at the end of the day, In the land down under so far away
Where they’ve gone to stay
I’ll be there one day and it won’t be long, Just like I was going to all along
And hear his song
 
 
The bird is in the tree and he’s laughing for me (x3)
The bird is in the tree
