CHORUS
Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockin` bird`s trill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee dee dee
There`s peace and goodwill
You`re welcome as the flowers on Mockin`bird Hill
When the sun in the mornin` peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses `round my windowsill
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
Of those birds in the treetops on Mockin`bird Hill
CHORUS:
When it`s late in the evenin` I climb up the hill
And survey all my kingdom while everything`s still
Only me and the sky and an old whippoorwill
Singing songs in the twilight on Mockin`bird Hill
CHORUS X 3 with FADE on third
END OF PAGE`S VERSION
It has been reported (but I can`t confirm) that other versions may contain an
additional verse:
Got a three cornered plow and an acre to till
And a mule that I bought for a ten dollar bill
There`s a tumble-down shack and a rusty old mill,
But it`s my home sweet home up on Mockin`bird Hill
