Ground Birds
Where should a good bird be
Should he always sit in trees
No sometimes on the ground
Many good birds are often found
See the robin running ‘round
Where should a roadrunner run
Of course on the road in the sun
His racing ‘round great to see
But never in a great big tree
And what about a meadowlark
Should he perch there in the park
Sometimes yes and happily too
in meadow grass in morning dew
Then what about the quail
Running round with their little tails
Are they ground birds when they fly
Fast into a cloudless sky
Yes quail are ground birds too
When they fly each afternoon
to another grassy place
Where on the ground they can run and race
A bird is a ground bird when
A broken wing won’t do him in
But motivate him to just lie low
And run real fast when a predator in tow
