Lyrics Mom And Dad?s Waltz - Lefty Frizzell, The Pinetoppers

Mom And Dad?s Waltz

When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses by my window sill
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
Of those birds in the tree tops on Mockin' Bird Hill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee-dee-dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird’s trill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee-dee-dee, there’s peace and goodwill
You’re welcome as the flowers on the Mockin' Bird Hill
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ah-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ah
Tweedlee-dee-dee, tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ah-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ah
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ee-la-ooh-ooh
Got a three cornered plow and an acre to till
And a mule that I bought for a ten dollar bill
There’s a tumbledown shack and a rusty ol' mill
But it’s my home sweet home up on Mockin' Bird Hill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee-dee-dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird’s trill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee-dee-dee, there’s peace and goodwill
You’re welcome as the flowers on the Mockin' Bird Hill
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ah-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ah
Tweedlee-dee-dee, tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ah-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ah
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ee-la-ooh-ooh
When it’s late in the evenin' I climb up the hill
And survey all my kingdom while everything’s still
Only me and the sky and an old whippoorwill
Singing songs in the twilight on Mockin' Bird Hill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee-dee-dee, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning to the mockingbird’s trill
Tra-la-la, tweedlee-dee-dee, there’s peace and goodwill
You’re welcome as the flowers on the Mockin' Bird Hill
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ah-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ah
Tweedlee-dee-dee, tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ah-ooh
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ooh-ah
Tweedlee-dee-dee, ee-la-ooh-ooh
