Brownsville/Mockingbird Lyrics – Joy of Cooking
Singer: Joy of Cooking
Title: Brownsville/Mockingbird
Well I’m going to Brownsville, gonna take that right-hand road
I’m going to Brownsville, gonna take that right-hand road
Well I won’t stop walkin’ till I’m at sweet daddy’s door
The man I’m loving, he’s got great, long, curly hair
Said the man I’m loving, he’s got great, long, curly hair
Well, my ma and my pa, now they sure don’t allow me there
I got a letter from my baby, this is the way it read
I got a letter from my baby, this is the way it read
Come on home little girl, your old man’s bed
Well, I’m going to Brownsville, gonna take that right-hand road
I’m going to Brownsville, gonna take that right-hand road
Well I won’t stop walking till I’m at sweet daddy’s door
Can’t stop now
Keep in walkin’
Well I’m goin’ home
Mama don’t you cry
Don’t say a word
Oh mockingbird…
Hush little baby don’t you cry
Mama gonna sing you a lullaby
Said hush little baby don’t you say a word
Papa’s gonna buy you a mockingbird
You know if that mockingbird don’t sing
Papa’s gonna buy you a diamond ring (2x)
If that diamond ring don’t shine
Papa gonna be my valentine. (2x)
Said if that diamond ring is brass
Papa’s gonna buy you a looking glass (2x)
If that looking glass gets broke
Papa’s gonna buy you a billy goat (2x)
If that billy goat run away
Papa’s gonna buy you another one… another one. (2x)
Now if that billy goat don’t stay
Papa’s gonna buy you a Chevrolet
Mockingbird, said mockingbird, (2x)
You can hear him sing
Mockingbird, it can do ‘most anything
I can hear him whistle, I can hear him shout
It can tell you, tell you what it’s all about
Mockingbird, you can hear him sing
Mockingbird, you can hear him shout
You can hear him cry
Sometimes in the middle of the night
When you’re all alone in the darkness
No-one else around you, for miles and miles
Lonesome and everything is still
Oh yeah, can you hear him, out in the distance
Out in the darkness, I can hear him calling
I can hear him cry, I can hear him calling
Oh oh, yeah, yeah, said mockingbird, mockingbird
