Jaybird Lyrics
[SAM]
Oh, jaybird sittin' on a hick'ry limb
He winked at me and I winked at him
I picked up a brickbat and hit him on the chin
"Look-a here, little boy, don't you do that agin'!"
[SAM AND SUSANNAH]
Oh, jaybird sittin' on a hick'ry limb
He winked at me and I winked at him
I picked up a brickbat and hit him on the chin
"Look-a here, little boy, don't you do that agin'!"
