[00:00:00] Mitchell: Hey Little Songbird (Live) - Original Cast of Hadestown

[00:00:16] Written by：Anaïs Mitchell

[00:00:24] Hey little songbird give me a song

[00:00:30] I am a busy man and I can t stay long

[00:00:36] I got clients to call I got orders to fill

[00:00:43] I got walls to build I got riots to quell

[00:00:49] And they re giving me hell back in Hades

[00:00:54] Hey little songbird cat got your tongue

[00:01:00] Always a pity for one so pretty and young

[00:01:07] When poverty comes to clip your wings

[00:01:15] And knock the wind right out of your lungs

[00:01:20] Hey nobody sings on empty

[00:01:26] Strange is the call of this strange man

[00:01:32] I want to fly down and feed at his hand

[00:01:38] I want a nice soft place to land

[00:01:44] I want to lie down forever

[00:01:48] Hey little songbird you got something fine

[00:01:53] You d shine like a diamond down in the mine

[00:01:59] And the choice is yours if you re willing to choose

[00:02:06] Seeing as you are got nothing to lose

[00:02:12] And I could use a canary

[00:02:19] Suddenly nothing is as it was

[00:02:25] Where are you now Orpheus

[00:02:31] Wan t it always the two of us

[00:02:37] Were t we birds of a feather

[00:02:40] Hey little songbird let me guess

[00:02:46] He s some kind of poet and he s penniless

[00:02:52] Give him your hand he ll give you his hand to mouth

[00:03:00] He ll write you a poem when the power s out

[00:03:05] Hey why not fly south for the winter

[00:03:12] Hey little songbird look all around you

[00:03:18] See how the vipers and vultures surround you

[00:03:24] They ll take you down they ll pick you clean

[00:03:31] If you stick around such a desperate scene

[00:03:38] See people get mean when the chips are down
