CATBIRD

DADDY WAS A CATBIRD, MOMMA WAS A DOVE,

BUT THAT DIDN'T STOP THEM FROM FALLING

IN LOVE.

THEY CAME TOGETHER IN A PEA PATCH

NEVER GIVING A THOUGHT TO WHAT THEY MIGHT HATCH

THE LORD ABOVE SHINED HIS LIGHT ON THEM

WHEN DADDY SANG HIS SONG OUT ON THAT LIMB

HE USED TO SING "SWEET MOMMA TREE TOP TALL"

AND SHE USED TO WAIT TO SEE IF HE WOULD FALL
