A Bird in the Hand (Is Worth Two in the Bush) Songtext

von The Velvelettes

Girls, when you've got a good love
Who's gonna treat you right
But another guy offers you a better life
Right away you start to swoon
Because he offers you the moon
Tell me, is riches
Worth more than love and affection?
Don't be steered in the wrong direction 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
Remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got
You're just losin' a love that's true
For a love that might last a day or two
Why gamble when you have what you need?
You might be losing everything, girls
The grass looks greener on the other side
But you just might be taken for a ride 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
Remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got
Worth more than love and affection?
Don't be steered in the wrong direction 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
Remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got
Just as sure as the wind will blow
Fellas will come and fellas will go
Makin' promises they vow to keep
But chances are you'll be left to weep, girls
So if you have a guy that's good to you
Hold on tight, it's the thing to do, 'cause
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
Remember girls
(A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush)
So hold onto what you've got
Hold on, hold on girls
'Cause a bird in the hand is worth in the bush now
Hold on, hold on girls
'Cause a bird in the hand is worth in the bush now
