little blue robin - mickey newbury lyrics
well here’s the story the story i heard
about little blue robin
and his friend mockingbird
they went to down to the freight yard
watching the trains
when mockin’ got robbed
and little robin got blamed
frog was so frightened
boys he sung like a bird
said judge it was robin
i give you my word
sherriff baldeagle hauled robin to jail
old crow blew in and paid robins bail
yes a frog he can croak or choke on his lie
for the truth is no option
in a bushwackers eye
with his hand on the bible
and his head bowed in shame
he swore it was robin
little robin got blamed
old crow and blue robin
like jesse ‘n’ james
turned outlaw that mornin’
to clear robins name
flying the coop … crow and robin were gone
trackin’ the buzzard that stole mockins song
and years on the skyway
they went gunnin’ the wind
robbin’ the songbirds
for mockin’ their friend
the old owls all tell how
one song got away
the song of the mockingbird
is lost to this day
mockin’ died thinking
his friend done him wrong
little blue robin never found mockins song
when somebodys wrong boys
somebody must pay
that’s why the little red robin
is blue to this day
blue to this day
