Rockin' Robin Lyrics
Jump to:
He rocks in the tree top all the day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birds down Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet
[Chorus:]
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
Go rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight
Every little swallow, every chick-a-dee
Every little bird in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl, the big black crow
FLAPPIN' THEIR WINGS singin' go bird go!
[Chorus]
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
Go rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight
[musical interlude]
Pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
They started going steady and a-bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole!
He rocks in the tree top all the day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies down Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet!
[Chorus]
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
Go rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight
Pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
They started going steady and a-bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole!
He rocks in the tree top all the day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies down Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet!
[Chorus]
Rockin' robin, tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
