[Chorus 1]
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain

[Verse 1]
All ye maidens, heed my warning
Never trust the hearts of men
For they will crash you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never men

[Chorus 1]
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain

[Verse 2]
If I were a little sparrow
Over these mountains I would fly
And I would find him, yes I would find him
And look into his lying eyes
I would fly around him, with my little sparrow wings
And I would ask him, yes I would ask him
Why he left me in vain
[Chorus 1]
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain

[Verse 3]
But I am not some little sparrow
I am but a broken wing
From a cold false hearted lover
And his evil conning scems

[Chorus 1]
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain

[Bridge]
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Oh, the sorrow never ends

[Chorus 2]
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Oh, the sorrow never ends
