Yellow Bird - The Brothers Four
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
Nothing else to do
Yellow bird
Yellow bird
Yellow bird
