Jeff Beck - Mockin' Bird Hill Lyrics






When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses 'round my window sill
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
Of the birds in the treetops on Mockingbird Hill

Tra la la, tweedle dee dee dee
It gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
To the mockingbird's trill
Tra la la tweedle dee dee dee
There's peace and good will
You're welcome as the flowers
On Mockingbird Hill

Got a three-cornered plow and an acre to till
And a mule that I bought for a ten-dollar bill
There's a tumble-down shack and a rusty old mill
But it's my Home Sweet Home up on Mockingbird Hill

Tra la la, tweedle dee dee dee
It gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
To the mockingbird's trill
Tra la la tweedle dee dee dee
There's peace and good will
You're welcome as the flowers
On Mockingbird 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
Singin' songs in the twilight on Mockingbird Hill

Tra la la, tweedle dee dee dee
It gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
To the mockingbird's trill
Tra la la tweedle dee dee dee
There's peace and good will
You're welcome as the flowers
On Mockingbird Hill

    @ Caroline Corman
    I think you'll find that Mary Ford recorded it before Patti!

  10. M.... C....

    Les Paul was one of Jeff's heroes and an inspiration so its no surprise he excels at this material. Imelda clearly holds Mary Ford in high regard, too.

  11. M.... W....

    Superb and very well sang. Great to see a younger singer singing a classic. Thank you

  12. p.... v....

    Wat een stem ppffff love it

  13. B.... M....

    Très belle version, mais j'entends 2 voix et je ne vois qu'une chanteuse !

  14. f.... d....

    beautiful rendition

  15. I.... ....

    Not what you usually think of when someone mentions Jeff Beck, but I think Les Paul (and Mary Ford) would heartily approve. Beautiful rendition of the song.

  16. B.... G....

    Very nice rendition

  17. T.... A....

    Perfect!

  18. S.... G....

    I love this

  19. M.... L....

    She sounds just like Mary Ford

    M.... L....

    No, she doesn't; she sounds just like Imaelda May singing a Mary Ford cover. I love them both.
