Rockin' Robin
The Hollies
(Thomas)
from the album Here I Go Again (June, 1964)
Tweed-la-dee, tweed-la-da-la-dee,
tweed-la-dee, tweed-la-da-la-dee,
tweed-la-dee, tweed-la-da-la-dee,
tweet, tweet, tweed-la-dee.
He rocks in the treetops all the day long,
hopppin' and a-boppin' and a-singing his song.
Every little bird, every little bee
loves to hear the robin go tweet-tweet-tweet.
Rockin' Robin, tweet, tweed-la-dee.
Rockin' Robin, tweet, tweed-la-dee.
Yeah, go Rockin' Robin, really gonna rock tonight.
Every little swallow, every chick-a-dee,
every little bird in the old oak tree,
wise old owl, big black crow,
flap their wings saying "Go, bird, go."
chorus
A chief bird standing at the birdbath stand
taught him how to do the bop and it was grand.
Started goin' steady and bless my soul,
he out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole.
