As recorded by Jesse Welles (2025 release) [Intro] A [Verse 1]

A         N.C.
The goose came honking up over the pond

N.C. Going "Hey honk honk I'm coming in hot."

        D
And the wood duck said "About to lay me an egg

A
So watch where you land in your big goose head."

        E
And the woodpecker yelled to the robin mate

D
"Somebody help I got a bad headache."

        A
And the hummingbird whispered a joke to the hen

        E
And the falcon overheard but just a peregrin noiw

[Chorus]

    A
Now birds birds flying around

A
Chirping and a slurping worms right down

D
Birds birds singing a tune making a nest

A
Like a good bird do

A
Birds birds ruffling up feathers

D
Hoping and praying for some good flying weather

A
Birds

[Verse 2]

E       N.C.
The big beak buzzard barked at the crow said

N.C. "I'd be a lot like you if it weren't for the road."

        D
And the king fisher said to the common loon

     A
Them mouse should come out in the light of the moon

        E
And the red tailed hawk was a talking some squawk

       D
So the mocking bird came and plum ran him off

N.C. And the great blue heron's looking a little bit rough

        E       N.C.
He been running around with wild turkey too much

N.C. There's a wubble in his gubble that's bound to cause some trouble

        A
Now the eagle came down to talk with the crane

A
Said "Buddy can you help me find a little road gain?"

        D
And the crane said "Ain't being on the quarter enough?"

N.C. He said "They say bald a smooth but buddy bald's pretty rough."

        E
And the raven just got done doing his chores

           D
Said "When I grow up never more never more."

N.C. And the pigeon said "Man I'm gonna catch me a train

       E
Cuz my cousin the dove is done calling for rain now."

[Chorus]

A
Birds birds flying around

A
Chirping and slurping worms right down

D
Birds birds singing a tune

A
Making a nest like a good bird do

E
Birds birds ruffling up feathers

D
Hoping and praying for some good flying weather

A
Birds
