Baby birddon't you cry
Don't you fly away from me
don't you fly
don't you fly
La la la
I've gift-wrapped you a tiny tree
With golden leaves for you & me
To set-up home in a beautiful nest
You can lie here on my soft red chest
My soft red chest
La la la
Baby baby birdI'm so lonely
And the sky is so cold & unstable
Baby birddon't you cry
Don't you fly away from me
don't you fly
(x4)
Baby baby birdlet me be
The cage around your Christmas tree
You out there, me in here
Never, never set me free
Baby birdset me free
set me free
set me free
