Mockingbird Songtext / Lyric

Everybody have you heard ?
He's gonna buy me a mockingbird
and if that mockingbird don't sing
he's gonna buy me a diamond ring
and if that diamond ring won't shine
he's gonna surely break this heart of mine
and that's why I keep on tellin' everybody sayin'

Wo wo wo wo

Hear me now and understand
he's gonna find me some peace of mind
and if that peace of mind won't stay
I'm gonna find myself a better way
and if that better way ain't so
I'll ride with the tide and go with the flow
and that's why I keep on shoutin' in your ear sayin'

Wo wo wo

Well now everybody have you heard ?
She's gonna buy me a mockingbird
and if that mockingbird don't sing
she's gonna buy me a diamond ring
and if that diamond ring won't shine
guess it surely break this poor heart of mine
and that's the reason why I keep on tellin' everybody sayin'

No no no no no

Listen now and understand
she's gonna find me some peace of mind
and if that peace of mind won't stay
I'm gonna get myself a better way
I might rise above, I might go below
Ride with the tide and go with the flow
and that's why I keep on shoutin' in your ears y'all

No no no no
