Janie Bay - Little Bird Lyrics



Janie Bay - Little Bird Lyrics
Official




I look up to the little bird
That flies across the sky
It sings the clearest melody
It makes me want to cry
It makes me want to sit back down
And cry, cry, cry, yeah

I walk along the city streets
So dark with rage and fear
And I,
I wish that I could be that bird
And fly away from here
I wish I had the wings to fly away from here, yeah

But mamma, I feel so low
Mamma, where do I go?
Mamma, what do I know?
Mamma, we reap what we sow

They always said that you knew best, but
This little bird's fallen out of that nest now
I got a feeling that it might have been blessed to
I just got to put these wings to test

For I am just a troubled soul
Who's weighted
Weighted to the ground
Give me the strength to carry on
Till I can lay this burden down
Give me the strength to lay to lay it down
Give me the strength to lay it down
Lay it down, lay it down

But mamma, I feel so low
Mamma, where do I go?
Mamma, what do I know?
Mamma, we reap what we sow

They always said that you knew best but
This little bird's fallen out of that nest now
I got a feeling that it might have been blessed to
I've just got to put these wings to test

Mamma I feel so low
Mamma, where do I go?
Mamma, what do I know?
Mamma, we reap what we sow

Put you one more time
