Tom T. Hall - Everybody Loves To Hear A Bird Sing lyrics

Sometimes birds don't have enough to eat There's not enough food in the fields or the streets There are too many cities where there used to be trees so it's left up to you and me Everybody loves to hear a bird sing (whistle) The prettiest music you have ever heard here's how to make friends with the bird First you get some peanut bu*ter out of a jar And you can buy a bag of bird seed anywhere You mix it all together and you put it on the ground And pretty soon the birds come around Everybody loves to hear... Some people buy spray and they spray it on the land They k** all the little bitty bugs that they can The birds eat up the bugs and it makes them sick I wish we didn't have to do that Cause everybody loves to hear... Right now you're young and you're not very tall You're really very busy and you're rally very small Someday when you're older and things go wrong you've gotta need a pretty bird song Because everybody loves to hear...
