MOCKINGBIRD by Joel Sattler high in the Kentucky hills I played tag with a mockingbird I swear if he had had the skill he'd have repeat every single word sing sing little mockingbird I told him a tale of a love I lost told him a story he must have heard sing sing little mockingbird high in the Kentucky hills I was so lost I could not be found the hills were green and the air was still for miles and miles all round sing to me my little friend sing to me until the end sing until the sun goes down sing to me a simple sound in the wild there's no tomorrow only the rising of the sun every day is the only day every one only one high in the Kentucky hills I played tag with a mockingbird I swear if he had had the skill he'd have repeated every word sing sing little mockingbird ================� ================= MOCKINGBIRD second version song lyrics by Joel Sattler way high up on the hill I heard a mockingbird he had the skill to sing back my words I swear way high up in the sky I heard a mockingbird why tell me why are things as they were I told him a story of a love lost and found nights all full of glory the world spinning around and round high up in the Kentucky hills we sang til the sun came up and I know that it sounds absurd I sang with a mockingbird ========== high up in Kentucky hills I heard a mockingbird the air was still for mile and miles my little friend he sang with me sang with a mockingbird hills were so green I had to smile I swear there was no tomorrow only but one today promise of the sunrise when we when we would fly away and when finally sun go down I flew flew away with her to a place that was never found I flew with a mockingbird ================== way high up on the hill I heard a mockingbird he had the skill to sing back my words I swear way high up in the sky I heard a mockingbird why tell me why are things as they were I told him a story of a love lost and found nights all full of glory the world spinning around and round high up in the Kentucky hills we sang til the sun came up and I know that it sounds absurd I sang with a mockingbird ==========
