lyrics

Well the nesting bird sings soft and shrill
Makes her nest with what she will
Sings her troubles in a solemn line
All wrapped up in wax paper and twine
Wrapped in wax paper and baling twine

Singing don’t let me go
Along that narrow road alone

Well when winter comes you must feed your chicks
And so you learn a thousand tricks
But the hedgehog famine he smiles and waits
Curled in corners of the fine estates
Curled up in corners of the fine estates

Singing don’t let me go
Along that narrow road alone

Just speak from your blushing cheeks
Your soft throat was made to speak
Your solid bones ain’t fit for wings
But you can roam round anything

I won’t let you go
Along that narrow road alone
No I won’t let you go
Along that narrow road alone
