Gillian Welch Winter`s Come And Gone Lyrics

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 blue bird

Pearly feather breast

Five cold nickels all I got left

Oh little blue bird

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 black bird

On my wire line

Dark as trouble

In this heart of mine

Poor little black bird

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
