Red Bird Lyrics


Ho down down
Ho down dee
Red bird dancin'
In custodyGoin' down
New Orleans
Red bird dancin'
An a red bird singRed bird sing
Red bird do
New Orleans
An a red bird blueI been born
An I'm gonna die
Blood red wing
You gonna make me flyGoin' in
A red bird den
Ain't gonna
Come out againHo down down
Ho down dee
Red bird dancin'

In custodyHo down down
Ho down dee
Red bird dance
A penitentiaryA jailer stoned
An he barred the door
Red bird gone, yeah
To fly no moreBlack crow see
Black crow knew
New Orleans is where
The red bird flewI been born
An I'm gonna die
Blood red wing
You gonna make me cryRusty wing
A daed dark thing
Crows too loud now
When the red bird singHo down down
Ho down dee
Red bird dance
A penitentiary
