Pretty Bird

[Verse 1]
Why do you sing, you pretty bird?
How can you fly so high
When my true love has left me
And here alone am I?

[Chorus]
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I wish that I were you
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I'd fly up in the blue

[Verse 2]
Oh, hear the piper play his tune
He's playin' soft and low
He plays a tune familiar
One that you should know

[Chorus]
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I wish that I were you
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I'd fly up in the blue

[Verse 3]
There's nothing tasted sweeter, babe
Since I started lovin' you
Tomorrow coloured red and gold
Now, it's turnin' blue

[Chorus]
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I wish that I were you
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I'd fly up in the blue

[Verse 4]
No, there's nothing tasted sweeter, babe
Since I started lovin' you
Tomorrow coloured red and gold
Now, it's turnin' blue

[Chorus]
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I wish that I were you
Pretty bird, pretty bird
I'd fly up in the blue
