little sparrow Dolly parton = (chorus) Little sparrow, little sparrow, Precious fragile little thing Little sparrow, little sparrow Flies so high and feels no pain. All ye maidens heed my warning Never trust the hearts of men They will crush you like a sparrow Leaving you to never mend. They will vow to always love you Swear no love but yours will do Then they Break your little heart in two Repeat chorus If i were a little sparrow, over these mountains i would fly I would find him, i would find him, look into his lying eyes I would flutter all around him, on my little sparrow wings I would ask him, i would ask him, why he left me loving him Repeat chorus I am not a little sparrow, i am just the broken dream Of a cold false-hearted lover and his evil cunning scheme Repeat chorus All ye maidens fair and tender Never trust the hearts of men They will crush you, like a sparrow Leaving you to never mend. Little sparrow, little sparrow, Oh my sorrow never ends.
