Lyrics

[Intro]
Tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee, tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee
Tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee, tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee
Tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee, tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee
Tweet, tweet, tweet-tweet
[PreChorus]
He rocks in the treetop all the day long
Hopping and a-bopping and a-singing his song
All the little birds on Jay Bird Street
Love to hear the robin go, "Tweet-tweet-tweet"
[Chorus]
Rockin' Robin
Tweet-tweet-tweet
Rock, rock, Rockin' Robin
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
Blow, Rockin' Robin 'cause we really gonna rock tonight, yeah
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
[Verse 1]
Every little swallow, every chickadee
Every little bird in the tall oak tree
The wise old owl, the big black crow
Flapping their wings, singing, "Go, bird, go"
[Chorus]
Rockin' Robin
Tweet-tweet-tweet
Rock, rock, Rockin' Robin
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
Blow, Rockin' Robin 'cause we really gonna rock tonight
Tweet, tweet, tweet-tweet
[Verse 2]
A pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
Taught him how to do the bopping, it was grand
They started going steady and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole
[PreChorus]
He rocks in the treetop all the day long
Hopping and a-bopping and a-singing his song
All the little birds on Jay Bird Street
Love to hear the robin go, "Tweet-tweet-tweet"
[Chorus]
Rockin' Robin
Tweet-tweet-tweet
Rock, rock, Rockin' Robin
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
Blow, Rockin' Robin 'cause we really gonna rock tonight
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
[Verse 3]
Well, the pretty little raven at the bird bandstand
Taught him how to do the bopping, it was grand
They started going steady and bless my soul
He out-bopped the buzzard and the oriole
[PreChorus]
He rocks in the treetop all the day long
Hopping and a-bopping and a-singing his song
All the little birds on Jay Bird street
Love to hear the robin go, "Tweet-tweet-tweet"
[Chorus]
Rockin' Robin
Tweet-tweet-tweet
Rock, rock, Rockin' Robin
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
Blow, Rockin' Robin 'cause we really gonna rock tonight
Tweet, tweedle-lee-dee
[Outro]
Tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee, tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee
Tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee, tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee
Tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee, tweedle lee-deedle-dee-dee
