Bobby Bare Bird Named Yesterday

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

desire to perspire and that's how progress goes But the sound of their singing thrilled me as distantly but clearly it rang Though I never saw their faces and never knew their names

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

Go away from my window leave at your own chosen speed I'm not the one you want babe I'm not the one that you need You say you're looking for someone

Billy Dalton staggered on the sidewalk someone said he stumbled and he fell Six squad cars came screamin' to the rescue hauled old Billy Dalton off to

The first sound I heard was a woman's cry The first word I learned to utter was goodbye Forgive me if I'm wrong in what I do to you While passin' through

They passed an ordinance in the town they said we'd have to tear it down That little old shack out back so dear to me Though the health department said

When the sun shines babe it'll wake you in the morning When the moon fades away then you gonna find me gone I'll kiss her lips so fine put that ring

Boring through the mountains by-passing the towns Interstate 90 is a sight to behold But that monument to progress and engineering skill Has covered
