(G. Johnson/APJJ/W. Don)

There is a pretty bird who sings a pretty song

She sits outside my window and she sings the
whole day long

I know the song she sings 'cause it reminds me of
my girl

And how I wish I knew just how to find her in
this world

It doesn't matter just how far away she'll be

If you could find her could you send her home to
daddy?

I told the pretty bird who sings the pretty song

I've loved her from afar and I've loved her for
so long

Won't you spread your tiny wings and fly around
this world

Tell me that you're gonna help me find my little
girl?

It doesn't matter just how far away she'll be

If you could find her could you send her home to
daddy?

It doesn't matter just how far away she'll be

If you could find her could you send her home to
daddy?

And so the pretty bird who sings a pretty song

Has flown away and left me and I don't know where
she's gone

I learned to sing a song that you could hear
around the world

That's how I'm gonna sing until I find that
little girl

It doesn't matter just how far away she'll be

If you could find her could you send her home to
daddy?

It doesn't matter just how far away she'll be

If you could find her could you send her home to
daddy?

It doesn't matter just how far away she'll be

If you could find her could you send her home to
daddy?
