Blue canary, she feels so blue
 She cries and sighs, she waits for you
 Blue canary, the whole day long
 She cries and tries to sing a song
 
Boy canary will sing a tango
 He will sing a sweet lullaby
 He will try to chase your blues away
 So please sweetheart, don’t cry
 
Blue canary, don’t feel so blue
 For I know just what to do
 It won’t take long to sing this song
 And then fly home to you
 
Blue blue blue canary -
 Tweet tweet tweet — the whole day long
 She cries and sighs and tries
 To — tweet tweet tweet — to sing a song
