A Bird Named Yesterday

Lyrics

[Chorus] I had a bird he flew away And I guess he's gone to stay But I see him winging on his way My flyaway bird named Yesterday [Verse 1] He's over the place of my birth He's circling a spot that I know He's hanging around the saw mill town Where the gentle summer breezes blow [Chorus] I had a bird he flew away And I guess he's gone to stay But I see him winging on his way My flyaway bird named Yesterday [Verse 2] He's riding on a train, he's down at the old swimming hole He'll fly 'til he finds that old gang of mine Then he'll search for a tree a big tall oak tree Then he'll look from his perch at the old country church [Chorus] I had a bird he flew away And I guess he's gone to stay But I see him winging on his way My flyaway bird named Yesterday
