Bluebird, The Buzzard and the Oriole

Now, listen, all you birds

I'm an eagle

When I say hop, let's go



It started one night

At a bird bandstand

Crickets was a jumping

With a swinging band



Had a new dance called

The rock and roll

Illuminated all

But three I'm told



Well, the bluebird

The buzzard and the oriole



Well, it was hopping

Trees was rocking

It was a rocking and

A hopping till the

Leaves came tumbling down



Well, the eagle came

Hopping from tree to tree

Said, I'll emcee this jamboree

All you little sparrows

Better swing and sway

We're gonna rock this tree

Till the break of day



With the bluebird

The buzzard and the oriole



Well, it was rocking

Trees was hopping

It was a rocking and

A hopping till the

Leaves came tumbling down



Well, the blackbird

Blabbing all the news around

The bugs came hopping

From out of the ground



They all joined in

Said, bless my soul

Who started this rock and roll

Well, the bluebird

The buzzard and the oriole



Well, it was hopping

Trees was rocking

It was a rocking and

A rolling till the

Leaves came tumbling down



Well, it was rocking

Trees was hopping

It was a rocking and

A strolling till the

Leaves came tumbling down
