lyrics

Little Birdie

Little birdie, little birdie
What makes you fly so high?
It's because I’m a pretty little bird
And I do not fear to die

Little birdie, little birdie
What makes your hair so red?
After all that I’ve been through
It’s a wonder I ain’t dead

Little birdie, little birdie
What makes your wings so blue?
It’s because I’ve been a’grieving
A’grieving after you

Little birdie, little birdie
Come sing for me a song
It’s a short while that I’ll be here
And a long time I’ll be gone

Little birdie, little birdie
What makes you fly so high?
It's because I’m a pretty little bird
And I do not fear to die

about

The Goat Family San Francisco, California

With harmonies storming in from the West and rhythms shaking loose from the American songbook, this band packs folk, country, banda, and blues into a wobbly wagon on a cross-country trip bound for butt-shaking happiness.
