I Had A Little Bird

I had a little bird,

I took it from the nest,

I pressed it and blessed it,

And nursed it in my breast.

I set it on the ground,

Danced round and round,

And sang about it so cheerily,

 With, "Hey, my little bird,

And Ho, my little bird, 

And Oh, But I love thee dearly!"

I make a little feast, 

Of food soft and sweet,

I hold it in my breast,

And coax it to eat, 

I pit,  and I pat,

I call this and that,

And I sing about so cheerily,

With "Hey, my little bird, 

And Ho, my little bird,

And Oh, but I love thee dearly!"
