aretha franklin - tiny sparrow lyrics

Loading...

come all ye fair and tender ladies,
take warning how you court your men.
they’re like the stars on a summer’s mornin’
first they’ll appear and then they’re gone.

if i had known before i courted
what all his lyin’ could have done
i’d have locked my heart in a box of golden
and never would have courted none.

i wish i were a tiny sparrow
and i had wings and i could fly.
i’d fly away to my own true lover
and all he’d ask i would deny.

alas i’m not a tiny sparrow
i have not wings nor can i fly
and on this earth in grief and sorrow
i am bound until i die.

come all ye fair and tender ladies
take warning how you court your men.
they’re like the stars on a summer’s mornin’
first they’ll appear and then they’re gone.
