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 tree tops on mocking bird hill

Tra-la-la, twittle-dee-dee-dee, it gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning to the mocking bird's trill

Tra-la-la, twittle-dee-dee-dee there's peace and goodwill

You're welcome as the flowers on the mocking bird 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

Singing songs in the twilight on mockingbird hill

Tra-la-la, twittle-dee-dee-dee it gives me a thrill

To wake up in the morning to the mocking bird's trill

Tra-la-la, twittle-dee-dee-dee, there's peace and goodwill

You're welcome as the flowers on the mocking bird hill
