Lyrics
Two little lovebirds ‘way up in a tree
Were cooing as all lovebirds do
What were they saying, now can you tell me?
Just what any lovebirdies would say when they coo
But that’s an indefinite answer, my dear
Then move over closer, and I’ll make it clear
Refrain
Coo-ee-doo, they always coo-ee-doo
Coo-ee-doo, they coo the whole night through
And although he sometimes flies away
He’ll come back next day
And she’ll hear him say, Coo-ee-doo
I’m sorry as can be
Tell me true did you wait up for me?
Tho’ she’s angry, angry through and through
He’ll soothe her when he whispers coo-ee-doo
