Song: Mocking Bird Hill Artist: Slim Whitman
Please click to enjoy: Mocking Hill Bird

When the sun in the morning
Peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses
Round my windowsill
Then my heart fills with gladness
When I hear the trill
Of the birds in the treetops
On Mockin' Bird Hill

Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee
It gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
To the mockingbird's trill
Tra-la-la, twiddly-dee-dee
There's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers
On Mockin' Bird Hill

When it's late in the evening
I climb up the hill
And survey all my kingdom
While everything's still
Only me and the sky
And an old whippoorwill
It is my home
Sweet home above mocking hill
