Woorden: Be Good Tanyas. The Littlest Birds.

Well, I feel like an old hobo
I'm sad lonesome and blue
I was fair as a summer day
Now the summer days are through

You pass through places
And places pass through you
To you carry 'em with you
On the souls of your travellin' shoes

Well, I love you so dearly, I love you so clearly
I wake you up in the mornin' so early
Just to tell you I got the wanderin' blues
I got the wanderin' blues

And I'm gonna quit these ramblin' ways
One of these days soon and I'll, and I'll sing

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

Well, it's times like these, I feel so small and wild
Like the ramblin' footsteps of a wanderin' child
And I'm lonesome as a lonesome whippoorwill
Singin' these blues with a warble and a trill

But I'm not too blue to fly
No, I'm not too blue to fly 'cause

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

Well, I love you so dearly, I love you so fearlessly
I wake you up in the mornin' so early
Just to tell you I got the wanderin' blues
I got the wanderin' blues

And I don't wanna leave you
I love you through and through

Oh, I left my baby on a pretty blue train
And I sang my songs to the cold and the rain
And I had the wanderin' blues
And I sang those wanderin' blues

And I'm gonna quit these ramblin' ways
One of these days soon and I'll
And I'll sing

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs
The littlest birds sing the prettiest songs

I don't care if the sun don't shine
I don't care if nothin' is mine
I don't care if I'm nervous with you
I'll do my lovin' in the wintertime
