Rockin' Robin

Bobby Day
Rockin' Robin (1958)

He rocks in the tree tops
all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin'
and singing his song
All the little birdies
on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin
go tweet tweet tweet
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Blow rockin' robin
'Cause we're really
gonna rock tonight

Every little swallow
every chick-a-dee
Every little bird
in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl
the big black crow
Flappin' their wings
singing go bird go
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Blow rockin' robin
'Cause we're really
gonna rock tonight
Ohhhhh

Pretty little raven
at the bird-band stand
Told them how to do
the bob and it was grand
They started going steady
and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard
and the oriol
He rocks in the tree tops
all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin'
and singing his song
All the little birdies
on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin
go tweet tweet tweet
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Blow rockin' robin
'Cause we're really
gonna rock tonight
Pretty little raven
at the bird-band stand
Told them how to do
the bob and it was grand
They started going steady
and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard
and the oriol
He rocks in the tree tops
all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin'
and singing his song
All the little birdies
on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin
go tweet tweet tweet
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Blow rockin' robin
'Cause we're really
gonna rock tonight
