Mockin` Bird Hill Lyrics

Mockin` Bird Hill lyrics

Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

It gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird's trill

Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

There's peace and goodwill

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



When the sun in the morning

Peeps over the hill,

And kisses the roses 'round my windowsill

Then my heart fills with gladness

When I hear the trill

Of the birds in the treetops on Mockin' Bird Hill



Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

It gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird's trill

Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

There's peace and goodwill

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



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 old whippoorwill

Singin' songs in the twilight on Mockin' Bird Hill



Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

It gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird's trill

Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

There's peace and goodwill

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



Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee

There's peace and goodwill

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