Mockingbird Songtext
von Martha Reeves and the Vandellas

Mock yeah ing yeah bird yeah, yeah, yeah
Mockingbird yeah
Everybody have you heard?
Have you heard?
He′s gonna buy me a mockingbird
Oh, if that mockingbird don't sing
He′s gonna buy me a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring don't shine
He's gonna surely break this heart of mine
M, that′s why I keep calling and laughing
Yeah, yeah


Oh, I know I
I love him
But I can′t let him know
And I
I love him
And there's nothing he doesn′t know
But I don't know
If I could shake the effects of love
M, that′s why I keep calling and laughing
Yeah, yeah

Oh, I know
I know that he knows that I care
And I
I know that he knows he's my prayer
Cause I have so much that it′s unfair
That's why I keep calling and laughing
Yeah, yeah

Oh, I know
Everybody have you heard?
Have you heard?
He's gonna buy me a mockingbird
Oh, if that mockingbird don′t sing yeah
He′s gonna buy me a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring don't shine
He′s gonna surely break this heart of mine
That's why I keep calling and laughing
Yeah, yeah


Oh, I know
Everybody have you heard?
Have you heard?
He′s gonna buy me a mockingbird
And oh, if that mockingbird don't sing
Yeah, he′s gonna buy me a diamond ring...
