Lyrics
Edger the Ibis Bird
Vocals and lyrics by Mary McGrath
Copyright 7/11/24-All rights reserved

There is Edger on my walk, 
If you listen, he will squawk, 
His ibis beak so long and red 
Worms are all he wants he said.

He’s my ibis friend
Amusement til the end
I love to hear him talk.

Rain brings them out upon the lawn, 
Especially when it’s early dawn,
His fellows come to join the feast, 
To them it’s an early morning treat.

He’s my ibis friend
Amusement til the end
I love to hear him talk.

I try to see him every day, 
And hope he keeps my worms at bay, 
He looks at me with morning fear. 
I guess that’s why he won’t come near.

He’s my ibis friend
Amusement ’til the end
I love to hear him talk.

Nice song.  Like your voice and playing.  Cool acoustic solo.  The song reminds me of my bird.  I've had him for over 20 years and if I get near him he wants to bite my finger off and when I stay away he sings and whistles for me to visit him.
