A robin feathering his nest has very little time to rest 
                                      Bb 
While gathering his bits of twine and twig 
               Ab             B            Eb/Bb         F 
Though quite intent in his pursuit he has a merry tune to toot 
A  Bb    A Bb   A    Bb   A   Bb  A Bb 
He knows a song will move the job along
