Jackdaw - Clifford T Ward[00:00:00]
If I was a born again jackdaw[00:00:12]
You know I'd help you yes I would[00:00:19]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:00:24]
You know I'd be there if I could[00:00:31]
Well those in the know would have you believe[00:00:36]
That the jackdaw is bad an' he steals[00:00:42]
He's a symbol of darkness a crow the devil's own[00:00:48]
An' the poet laureate don't like 'em[00:00:54]
An' alfred hitchcock didn't like 'em[00:00:59]
An' it's a pretty safe bet that you don't like 'em[00:01:05]
Well let me tell you something[00:01:10]
I love 'em[00:01:14]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:01:16]
You know I'd help you yes I would[00:01:23]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:01:28]
You know I'd be there if I could[00:01:35]
But those in the know they'll scoff an' they'll say[00:01:41]
If you were a sparrow or a robin you'd despise jackdaws[00:01:46]
They steal your eggs an' eat your babies[00:01:53]
Well I've thought about this an' I'll tell you[00:01:58]
There might be a few rogue jackdaws[00:02:01]
But they get their comeuppance most care[00:02:04]
If one in the flock gets left behind or set upon[00:02:10]
Others return to help and secure it's safety and well being[00:02:15]
An' I'll tell you something[00:02:21]
I love 'em[00:02:25]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:02:27]
You know I'd help you yes I would[00:02:34]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:02:39]
You know I'd be there if I could[00:02:45]
An' I'll tell you something else what a jackdaw told me[00:02:51]
Your pecking order's all wrong he said[00:02:57]
You're burning your book and soon you'll be no better[00:03:02]
Than the fish in the sea[00:03:06]
Listen to me[00:03:07]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:03:13]
You know I'd help you yes I would[00:03:21]
An' if I was a born again jackdaw[00:03:25]
You know I'd be there and I would[00:03:32]
