Carolina Wren (Shad)

Rees Shad

Carolina Wren woke me up this morning                 

Up this morning with the sun

Carolina Wren woke me up this morning                 

Up this morning to get my day begun

 

Sweet little bird got a song like freedom                  

Song like freedom from a hollow tree

Sweet little bird got a song like freedom                  

Sounds like freedom when it comes to me

 

As you’re sleeping, I get dressed.      

I touch your cheek with one last caress…

 

Went downstairs and got the fire started                 

Fire started for my bread                  

Went downstairs and got the fire started                 

Made my coffee so as to clear my head

 

As you’re sleeping, I get dressed.      

I touch your cheek with one last caress…

As you’re sleeping, I move on.           

I hope your heart is touched by that bird’s song….

 

Carolina Wren saw me off this morning                   

Off this morning from the back porch swing

Carolina Wren saw me off this morning                   

Off this morning with his song to sing

 

As I travel, as I roam, I’ll hear that song in my dreams of home

As you’re sleeping, dream of me, as I’ll dream of you endlessly

 

Carolina Wren woke me up this morning                 

Up this morning with the sun

Carolina Wren woke me up this morning                 

Up this morning to get my day begun
