Yellow bird, up high in banana tree.
Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.
Did your lady friend leave the nest again?
That is very sad, Make me feel so bad.
You can fly away, In the sky away
You more lucky than me.
I also had a pretty gal
She not with me today
They all the same, the pretty gal
Make 'em the nest. Then they fly away.
Yellow bird, up high in banana tree.
Yellow bird, you sit all alone like me.
Better fly away, In the sky away,
Picker coming soon, Pick from night to noon.
Black and yellow you, Like banana too
They may pick you some day.
Wish that I was a yellow bird,
I fly away with you.
But I am not a yellow bird
So here I sit, nothing else to do.
