Take Me Home Lyrics by Anita Carter

Appalachian Angel - Her Recordings 1950-1972 & 1996 CD 3

0

Take me home little bird take me home
Take me home little bird take me home
Home to my mother she is dear than the others
Take me home little bird take me home
I'm as free a little bird as I can be
I'm as free a little bird as I can be
I fly to the east and I fly to the west
And I fly to the one I love the best
I wish I was a little honey bee
I'd get some of that honey from the comb
I'd steal me a kiss from my true lover's lips
And back to my hive I would go
Take me home little bird take me home...
I wish I was a little sparrow bird
I'd never build on my nest on the ground
I'd build my nest in my true lover's vest
Where the wild birds never tear it down
Take me home little bird take me home...
[ banjo ]
Well I wish I was a little mole
A little mole a rootin' in the ground
I'd root so hard that I'd never would get tired
And I'd root them old mountains down
Take me home little bird take me home...
I'm as free a little bird as I can be...
