Yellow bird, up high in banana tree Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me Did your lady friend leave the nest again That is very sad, makes me feel so bad You can fly away in the sky away _You're more lucky than me I also have a pretty girl She's not with me to-day They're all the same the pretty girls _Make them the nest _then they fly a-way Yellow bird, up high in banana tree Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me Better fly away in the sky away Picker coming soon pick from night to noon Black on yellow you like banana too _They might pick you some-day Wish that I were a yellow bird I'd fly away with you But I am not a yellow bird _So here I sit _nothing else to do Yellow bird,,, Yellow bird... Hmm...
