Lullaby of Birdland

1952
Music George Shearing
Lyrics George Weiss

Lullaby of birdland that’s what I
Always hear when you sigh
Never in my wordland could there be ways to repeal
In a phrase, how I feel
Have you ever heard two turtledoves
Bill and coo when they love
That’s the kind of magic music we make with our lips
When we kiss
