You took me down into the valley
I didn't know you were so deep
You left me standing
At the river every time

Now I'm gettin' that dog sleep
But I could not leave
I'm gettin' that dog sleep
But I could not leave

Every day I look around
Then I put my head back down

I'm livin' on dog sleep
But I could not leave

I'm livin' on horse meat
But I could not win
I'm livin' on horse meat
But I could not win

Every day, I'm back in town
Then I'm walkin' 'round and 'round

I'm livin' on horse meat
But I could not win

Little bird
Come shine to meet me
Come out from beneath your wing
Let me hear you sing

Turn around, light up the morning
Little bird, where have you been?
Every little thing
Let me hear you sing
