Al Bowlly - Walkin' Through Mockin' Bird Lane (1940)
Skies are blue and hearts are true
I just came back to my old home
Happy day, the kids at play
I have decided no more will I stray
I'm just walkin' through mockin' bird lane
I'm in the sunshine again
Every bird in the tree says good mornin' to me
While I'm walkin' through mockin' bird lane
I'm just swingin' along down the lane
Singin' a song once again
Every smile that I see is a-welcomin' me
While I'm walkin' through mockin' bird lane
Oh I have had my sorrows and pain
But sunshine comes after the rain
Oh I'm glad to be home once again
So happy, just walkin' through mockin' bird lane
I'm just swingin' along down the lane
Singin' a song once again
Every smile that I see is a-welcomin' me
While I'm walkin' through mockin' bird lane
Oh I have had my sorrows and pain
But sunshine comes after the rain
Oh I'm glad to be home once again
So happy, just walkin' through mockin' bird
(whistling)
