Hank Snow Mockin` Bird Hill Lyrics

Mockin` Bird Hill Lyrics

When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill

And kisses the roses round my window sill

Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill

Of the birds in the treetops on Mockin' Bird Hill



Tra la la twitle dee dee dee it gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning to the mockin' bird's trill

Tra la la twitle dee dee dee there's peace and good will

You're welcome as the flowers on Mockin' Bird Hill

[ guitar ]

When it's late in the evening I climb up the hill

And survey all my kingdom while everything's still

Only me and the sky and an ol' whippoorwill

Singin' songs in the twilight on Mockin' Bird Hill

Tra la la twitle dee dee dee...

You're welcome as the flowers on Mockin' Bird Hill

You're welcome as the flowers on Mockin' Bird Hill
