I got a bird for the winter You know I got a bird for the spring Well I got a bird for the winter Don't you know I got a bird for the spring And a little brown bird who do nothing Won't do nothing but whistle and sing Got a bird for the summer Got a little brown bird for the fall Got a bird for the summer and a little brown bird for the fall I got a little cute canary won't do nothing But sing the blues up and down the hall Sometimes I wonder Where's my little brown bird been gone Sometimes I wonder Where's my little brown bird been gone Keeps me cool in the summer But in wintertime she keeps warm
