Rockin' Robin

(album: Stay With The Hollies - 1964)

Twiddley dee, Twiddley diddley dee
Twiddley dee, Twiddley diddley dee
Twiddley dee, Twiddley diddley dee
Tweet, tweet, twiddley de

He rocks in the treetops all the day long
Hopping and a-bopping and a-singing this song
Every little bird, every little bee
Loves to hear the robin go tweet-tweet-tweet

Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Yeah go Rocking Robin, really gonna rock tonight

Every little swallow, every chick-a-dee
Every little bird in the old oak tree
Wise old owl, big black crow
Put out their wings singing go bird go

Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Yeah go Rocking Robin, really gonna rock tonight

The chief bird standing at the birdbath stand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
Start going steady and bless my soul,
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole

He rocks in the treetops all the day long
Hopping and a-bopping and a-singing this song
Every little bird, every little bee
Loves to hear the robin go tweet-tweet-tweet

Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Yeah go Rocking Robin, really gonna rock tonight

The chief bird standing at the birdbath stand
Taught him how to do the bop and it was grand
Start going steady and bless my soul,
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole

He rocks in the treetops all the day long
Hopping and a-bopping and a-singing this song
Every little bird, every little bee
Loves to hear the robin go tweet-tweet-tweet

Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Rocking Robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Yeah go Rocking Robin, really gonna rock tonight

Twiddley dee, Twiddley diddley dee
Twiddley dee, Twiddley diddley dee
