When the sun in the mornin peeps over the hill And kisses the roses my window sill Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill Of those birds in the tree tops on mockin bird hill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee it gives me a thrill To wake up in the morning to the mockin birds trill Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee Theres peace and goodwill Youre welcome as the flowers on the mockin bird hill
[Instrumental Interlude]
When its late in the evenin I climb up the hill And survey all my kingdom while everythings still Only me and the sky and an old whippoorwill Singing songs in the twilight on mockinbird hill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee it gives me a thrill To wake up in the morning to the mockin birds trill Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee Theres peace and goodwill Youre welcome as the flowers on the mockin bird hill
