lyrics

A dickey-bird whispered "Haven't you heard
Spring is here, Spring is here, Spring is here"
A little crow sang a happy hallo
My favourite time of the year

A little frog sang a song on his log
"Lose your blues,
Lose your blues,
Lose your blues"
And you and I fell in love in reply
On hearing the dickey-bird's news

If you have to look around to find a reason
For such a wonderful thing
You can blame it on the sentimental season
Falling in love is done in the spring

The bobolink looked at us with a wink
Attaboy,
Attagirl,
Nothing's wrong
When you are in love you'll go swinging along
A-singing that dickey-bird's song
