Lyrics

Mock (Yeah), Ing (Yeah), Bird (Yeah), Yeah (Yeah) Mockin' bird, mocking bird Everybody, have you heard? (Have you heard?) He's gonna buy me a mocking bird (Buy me a mocking bird) Whoa, if that mocking bird don't sing Yeah (If that mocking bird don't sing) He's gonna buy me a diamond ring (He's gonna buy me a diamond ring) And if that diamond don't shine (If that diamond, it don't shine) He's gonna surely break this heart of mine He's gonna break this heart of mine) And that's why (That's the reason) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah) Oh, I know (Yeah, yeah) That I, I, I, I, I know (Everybody, have you heard?) But I can't let him know (He's gonna buy me a mocking bird) That I, I, I, I, I love him (If that mocking bird don't sing) And he says he's got to go (He's gonna buy me a diamond ring) But if I can't let him know (If that diamond, it don't shine) I'm gonna make a mistake in love (He's gonna break this heart of mine) And that's why (That's the reason) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah) Oh, I know (Yeah, yeah) Oh, I, I, I, I, I know (Everybody, have you heard?) He knows that I care (He's gonna buy me a mocking bird) And I, I, I, I, I know (If that mocking bird don't sing) That he knows, he knows well (He's gonna buy me a diamond ring) But the colder sun we get (If that diamond, it don't shine) I find it's harder to say no (He's gonna break this heart of mine) And that's why (That's the reason) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah) Oh, I know, hey (Yeah, yeah) Everybody, have you heard? (Have you heard?) He's gonna buy me a mocking bird (Buy me a mocking bird) Whoa, if that mocking bird don't sing Yeah (If that mocking bird don't sing) He's gonna buy me a diamond ring (He's gonna buy me a diamond ring) And if that diamond don't shine (If that diamond, it don't shine) He's gonna surely break this heart of mine He's gonna break this heart of mine) And that's why (That's the reason) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah) Ooh, hey, hey, hey (Yeah, yeah) Everybody, have you heard? (Have you heard?) He's gonna buy me a mocking bird (Buy me a mocking bird) Whoa, if that mocking bird don't sing Yeah (If that mocking bird don't sing) He's gonna buy me a diamond ring (He's gonna buy me a diamond ring) And if that diamond don't shine (If that diamond, it don't shine) He's gonna surely break this heart of mine He's gonna break this heart of mine) And that's why (That's the reason) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah) Ooh, hey, hey, hey (Yeah, yeah) Everybody, have you heard? (Have you heard?) He's gonna buy me a mocking bird (Buy me a mocking bird) Whoa, if that mocking bird don't sing Yeah (If that mocking bird don't sing) He's gonna buy me a diamond ring (He's gonna buy me a diamond ring) And if that diamond don't shine (If that diamond, it don't shine) He's gonna surely break this heart of mine He's gonna break this heart of mine) And that's why (That's the reason) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah) I can't tell him, that's why I sing (Yeah, yeah)
