Won't you sing me a song or two,
Won't take you long to just sing to me please,
Won't you whistle a tune.
.
I got nothing to gain, I got nothing to lose,
But if you sing me a song,
You'll make me happy [?].
.
Sing Mr. Songbird,
Sing Mr. Songbird,
Sing Mr. Songbird,
You help to keep my troubles away.
.
Sing Mr. Songbird,
Sing Mr. Songbird,
Sing Mr. Songbird,
You help to keep my troubles away.

Mister, won't you sing me a song,
Won't you sing a little melody.
Won't you try to help me along,
Won't you sing a little song for me, oh yeah.
.
Sing me a song or two,
Won't take you long to just sing to me please,
Won't you whistle a tune.
.
Though I ain't got a beanie
'Cause I've nothing to dream,
So if you waiting for nothing,
Do something for me.
.
Sing Mr. Songbird,
Sing Mr. Songbird,
Sing Mr. Songbird,
You help to keep my troubles away.

You help to keep the devil away.
