Songs that mention a "Bird" in them


"Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road," Sara Bareilles
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh, I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road...

 
"The Garden Song," Peter, Paul & Mary
Old crow watching from a tree
He's got his hungry eye on me
In my garden I'm as free
As that feathered thief up there


And my favorite version (keep watching for the storytelling):

 
Aw, heck!! I was just coming to post this song! It's one of my favorites and I thought no one else would think of it.

Oh, I just thought of one. Usually played at Mass during the giving out of the Host. I miss Mass sometimes.
On Eagle's Wings:

Ive never heard On Eagles Wings before. Thanks for sharing. Here’s a similar title I love.

 

Bluebird
Miranda Lambert

Yeah, I'm a turner
I turn pages all the time
Don't like where I'm at
34 was bad, so I just turn to 35
Yeah, I'm a keeper
I keep digging down for the deep
Like the records I'm playing
They might keep you waiting
But you know I'm only playing for keeps
And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I'll just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep bluebird in my heart
Well, I'm a giver
Yeah, and I'm still giving 'em hell
Forgiving's pretty hard
So I've made an art
Out of forgettin' 'em well
Yeah, I'm a rhymer
I can turn 20 cents into a 10
And if I get confused and I start to lose
I'll rhyme a dime 'til it all makes sense
And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I'll just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll turn the light on in my soul
And, keep the bluebird in my heart
And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up my sleeve
And if love starts giving me lemons
Just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
Keep a bluebird in my heart
And the bluebird sings

Not sure if Hugh Jackman gets the accent right, but at least it's a sincere effort.



Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in the surrey
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top
 
THE BRONX BIRD WATCHER LYRICS
Allan Sherman


On a branch of a tree sat a little tomtit
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow
An uncomfortable place for a birdie to sit
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow
So I said to him, "Birdie, why don't you go way?"
He said, "Thanks very much, but I'm planning to stay
I'm gung sit on that branch for the rest of the day
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow."
So I said to him, "Birdie, you look so distraught
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow
You gonna be glad when you'll see what I brought
A pillow, a pillow, a pillow."
I said, "Birdie, your pardon I humbly would beg
Put this comfortable pillow right under your leg."
He said, "Leave me alone while I'm laying an egg
Uh willow, tit willow, tit willow."
That night by the light of a matzoh ball moon
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow
That birdie was singing the same catchy tune
Willow, tit willow, tit willow
And I came, and I took him right down from his branch
And I brought him back home to mine split-level ranch
And I said to my wife, "Here's a gift for you, Blanche
He sings 'willow, tit willow, tit willow.'"
Next morning I got up and went to the shop
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow
That tune was so catchy, it just wouldn't stop
Willow willow willow titty willow willow willow
Titty willow willow willow willow
That night I said, "Blanche, how's the bird?" She said, "Well
The bird was delicious, it tasted just swell
But as I fricaseed him, he gave out a yell:
'Oi willow, tit willow, tit willow.'"
