THE BLUEBIRD SONG Jean made this song her two sons, at bedtime when they were babies It was from the memory of a story told to her by her own mother...when little Jean had sat under an apple tree and seen a flight of bluebirds alight in its branches, then quickly fly away. Her mother then taught her a counting rhyme that would tell her fortune! copywrite 1969 Jean Ritchie Geordie MUsic Pub.
