Biography:
The Stanley Brothers (Carter Stanley, 1925-1966, and Ralph Stanley, 1927-2016) were an American bluegrass duo originally hailing from Dickenson County, Virginia. The family soon moved to McClure, Virginia, where their parents worked a small farm in the Clinch Mountains. Music was a part of their lives from the word go, as they were able to listen to the likes of The Monroe Brothers, Mainer's Mountaineers, and other artists featured on the Grand Ole Opry radio program.

"Little Birdy"
D
Little birdy, little birdy
A D
Won't you sing to me your song
D
Got a short time to stay here
A D
And a long time to be gone
D
I'd rather be in some dark hollow
A D
Where the sun don't ever shine
D
Than for you to be another man's darling
A D
And to know that you'd never be mine
D
Little birdy, little birdy
A D
What makes you fly so high
D
When you know that my true lover
A D
Is a-waiting in the sky
D
I'm a long way from old Dixie
A D
And my old Kentucky home
D
Got no father or mother
A D
No place to call my home
D
Little birdy, little birdy
A D
What makes your head so red
D
Well, after all that I been through
A D
It's a wonder I ain't dead
D
Married woman, married woman
A D
Why don't you settle down
D
Your heart's like the little birdy's
A D
You're flying all a-round
D
Little birdy, little birdy
A D
Won't you sing to me your song
D
You've caused me lots of trouble
A D
You've caused me to do wrong
D
Little birdy, little birdy
A D
Won't you sing to me your song
D
Got a short time to stay here
A D
And a long time to be gone
D
I'd rather be in some dark hollow
A D
Where the sun don't ever shine
D
Than for you to be another man's darling
A D
And to know that you'd never be mine
D
Little birdy, little birdy
A D
What makes you fly so high
D
When you know that my true lover
A D
Is a-waiting in the sky
D
I'm a long way from old Dixie
A D
And my old Kentucky home
D
Got no father or mother
A D
