A Bird Named Yesterday Songtext
von Bobby Bare

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

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


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

He′s riding on a train
He′s down at the old swimming hole
He'll fly till 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

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
