Early in the morning... about four o'clock
Way up in the tree tops... up among the clouds
Long before sunrise... at the crack of dawn
Up in a nest, a little bird... is singing me his song
And he goes like this
Early in the morning... about five o'clock
I'm down below... sleeping like a rock
I got in late last night... I need some sleep
The little bird's wide awake... singing his song for me
And he goes like this
Early in the morning... about six o'clock
I'm waking up and... rolling out of my cot
Way up in the tree tops... up near the clouds
I can still hear him... singing real loud
And he goes like this
