Mockingbird Lyrics - Heat Wave - Martha And The Vandellas

Everybody have you heard? 

He's gonna buy me a mockingbird 

And if that mockingbird won't sing 

He's gonna buy me a diamond ring 

And if that diamond ring won't shine 

He's gonna surely break this heart of mine 

And that's why I keep on tellin' ev'rybody, sayin' 

Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo 

Hear me now and understand 

He's gonna find me some peace of mind 

And if that peace of mind won't stay 

I'm gonna find myself a better way 

And if that better way ain't so 

I, I, I'll ride with the tide and go with the flow 

And that's why I keep on shoutin' in your ear sayin' 

Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo 

Everybody have you heard? 

She's gonna buy me a mockingbird 

And if that mockingbird won't sing 

She's gonna buy me a diamond ring 

And if that diamond ring won't shine 

She's gonna surely break this heart of mine 

And that's why I keep on tellin' ev'rybody, sayin' no, no, no, no,no 

Listen now and understand 

She's gonna find me some peace of mind 

And if that peace of mind won't stay 

I'm gonna find myself a better way 

I might rise above , I might go below 

I, I, I'll ride with the tide and go with the flow 

And that's why I keep on shoutin' in your ears y'all 

No, no, no, no, no, no, now, now, baby
