Night Bird
Music by Al Cohn
Lyric by Kitty Malone
A

Night bird fly by night bird

on ly sing ing when the sun has set. A

slight word not too bright word

sends you wing ing on your way. Yet I will

seek you and I will find you for

you know and I know it’s true that

star light wel comes day light and

I, too, fly by night.
