The chief bird standing at the birdbath stand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
Start goin' steady and bless my soul,
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole

Every little bird, every little bee
Loves to hear the robin go tweet-tweet-tweet

What Kind Of Love (Hicks / Clarke / Nash)
People say they doubt our love
That it will never last

And just how much we care
Let's go ahead and show them
What kind of love we share

Whoa, whoa, whoa

They say that you're the one
You've always been untrue
But darling don't you know
I'll always be in love with you

Whoa, whoa, Whoa, whoa, Whoa, whoa

When I'm Not There (Hicks)
When I'm not there
When I'm not there

Do you ever think of me
Do you ever talk of me
Do you ever ask for me
When I'm not there

Have you ever thought of me
Have you ever talked of me
Have you ever longed for me
When I'm not there

Wonderin' if you're true to me
And if our love will always be
I tried to get you by my side
But you said No
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no

Don't you ever make me blue
Won't you let me call on you
And may all my dreams come true
When I'm not there

Break

Wonderin' if you're true to me
And if our love will always be
I tried to get you by my side
But you said No
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
