When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses on my window sill
Then my heart fills with gladness as I hear the trill
Of the birds in the treetops on Mockingbird Hill
Tra-la-la, twee-dle-dee-dee-dee
It gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
To the Mockingbird's trill
Tra-la-la, twee-dle-dee-dee-dee
There's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers on Mockingbird Hill
♪
When it's late in the evening and everything's still
I survey all my kingdom on Mockingbird Hill
Me and the sky and an old whippoorwill
That's my home sweet home upon Mockingbird Hill
Tra-la-la, twee-dle-dee-dee-dee
It gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
To the Mockingbird's trill
Tra-la-la, twee-dle-dee-dee-dee
There's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers on Mockingbird Hill
