Little Child
Cab Calloway

With Lael Calloway

Daddy dear, tell me, please

Is the world really round

Tell me where is the

Bluebird of happiness bound

Tell me why is the sky

Up above so blue

And when you were a child

Did you daddy tell you

What becomes of the sun

When it falls in the sea

And who lights it again

Bright as bright can be

Tell me why can't I fly

Like a bird through the skies

Tell me why, daddy dear

Are there tears in your eyes

Little one, little one

Yes, the world's really round

And the bluebird you search for

Will surely be found

And the sky up above

Is so blue and clear

So that you see the bluebird

If it should come near

And the sun doesn't fall

When it slips out of sight

All it does is make way

For the moon's pretty light

And if children could fly

There'd be no need for birds

And I cry, little one

Cause I'm touched by your words

Don't be sad, daddy dear

If it's true the world's round

I will search round the world

Til the bluebird is found

Little one, there is no need

To wander too far

For what you really seek

Is right here where you are

Show me where, daddy dear

And here's what I'll do

I will take the dear bluebird

And give it to you

Dear, the bluebird's the love

In your heart, pure and true

And I found it the day

Heaven blessed me with you
