When the sun in the morning
And kisses the roses round
Then my heart fills with gladness
Of the birds in the treetops
Tra -la -la, triddly -diddly, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
to the mockingbird's trill
Tra -la -la, triddly -diddly,
that's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers
Got a three -cornered plow
And a mule that I bought for
shack and a rusty old mill
But it's my home sweet home
Tra -la -la, trilly -dilly, it gives me a thrill
To wake up in the morning
to the Mockingbird's trill
Call -a -la, trill -dee -dee,
there's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers
When it's late in the evening
And survey all my kingdom
Singing songs in the twilight
Tra -la -la, trill -dee -dee -dee,
To wake up in the morning
to the mockingbird's trill
Tra -la -la, trill -dee -dee -dee,
there's peace and goodwill
You're welcome as the flowers
You're welcome as the flowers
