Paroles de Chee chee-oo chee (sang the little bird )

( chip, chip chip! . . . )

Oh, once on a tree-top tall a little bird
Sang out the sweetest song i ever heard!
Chee chee-oo chee it sang to me so merrily
Chee chee-oo chee the little birdie on a tree

Life's such a lovely thing, it seemed to say
If you will only sing your cares away!
Chee chee-oo chee so merrily you went along
Chee chee-oo chee so happily his little song!

And so . . . chee chee-oo chee . . .
I sing . . . chee chee-oo chee
Chee chee-oo chee this happy, happy little thing!
If you . . . chee chee-oo chee . . .
Feel blue . . . chee chee-oo chee
Sing chee-oo chee and you can be as happy too!

Life's such a lovely thing, it seemed to say
Chee chee-oo chee, oo chee oo chee!
If you will only sing your cares away!
Chee chee-oo chee, oo chee oo chee!

< instrumental break >

And so . . . chee chee-oo chee . . .
I sing . . . chee chee-oo chee
Chee chee-oo chee this happy, happy little thing!
If you . . . chee chee-oo chee . . .
Feel blue . . . chee chee-oo chee
Sing chee-oo chee and you can be as happy too!

Sing chee-oo chee and you can be as happy too!
Sing chee-oo chee and you can be as happy too!
