"Signs Of Spring" lyrics - THE OKEE DOKEE BROTHERS

There's a little flower called the daffodil
It sprouts up as a sign
You never thought you really needed it 'til
It told you when the sun would shine
Uh huh it told you when the sun would shine

When the birds start to dance and the flowers start to sing
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh
There are hints of hope in the signs of spring
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh

The early bird a-comin' home the earliest
Is the bluest of the bluejays
When the mama's coming down to make a nest
You know spring is on its way
Uh huh, you know that spring is on its way

When the birds start to dance and the flowers start to sing
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh
There are hints of hope in the signs of spring
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh

There's a little sign that happens every year
The wait is always worth my while
That moment when the clouds all clear
And you remind me how to smile
Uh huh, you remind me how to smile

In a long cold winter, some things don't survive
But spring wakes up and hollers out, that death is part of life
Yeah, death is part of life

'Cause when the birds start to dance and the flowers start to sing
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh
There are hints of hope in the signs of spring
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh
Doodelee doo dah, yodelee yoh
