Lottie Kimbrough — Lost Lover Blues lyrics

Lyrics

My how that little bird does whistle. Gee, that reminds me of my long lost lover
I’ve lost my sweet lover, he’s gone away to stay
How I wish some gentle breeze would blow and bring him back to me
I wish I had wings like an aeroplane that flies in the heavens above
I wish I had wings like a little bluebird, I’d fly to the one that I love
I’m going back to the South Sea isles, sit up in the sand
Bathe and bathe in the tropical sun, maybe there I will find my man
I wish I had wings like an aeroplane that flies in the heavens above
I wish I had wings like a little bluebird, I’d fly to the one that I love
I love that lost sweet baby boy, from his head down to his knees
What a happy time it will be when long lost lovers meet
I wish I had wings like an aeroplane that flies in the heavens above
I wish I had wings like a little bluebird, I’d fly to the one that I love
