Marty Robbins Sings 'I Heard The Bluebirds Sing.'

This was a country hit for the Browns way back in 1957 and was was written if my memory serves me correctly by Canadian Hod Pharis. I think Marty and Don and Bob do a great job on it. I presume the fiddle playing is by Johnny Gimble, but I may be wrong.

Never heard anyone except the Browns do this . but this is great! GOD help people to get back to taking marriage serious, GOD is not at all pleased with all the living together and the like that goes on today. I love this song and the one by John and June Where did we go right, I am glad to say that I love my wife Martha as much as I ever did, this song is for me. Oh by the way I am 67 years old.

I knew it was a hit for Browns, but I've never heard anything that Marty Robbins couldn't sing, in my humble opinion --- thanks for sharing

@samjessin7 Hey Sam, God may not care about cohabitation but you can bet your sweet life that City Hall does. They need all the money they can get these days, so all you engaged people out there, buy them licenses, marry up and make your town a better and happier place to live. Also, if your children are religious, it might make them feel a little better about themselves, or not. Just saying.

Marty's singing is seldom equaled and never surpassed.

@elephantear1 Greenbriar Boys play this. On another note, this song does address excitement to marry, but it in no way condems cohabitation. God is not upset that people don't get married. I lived with my wife for five years before we were married, and I am glad we did.

@mteepockets That's the late and great Benny Martin on the fiddle.

The man could sing ANYTHING! I miss him.

I never heard the great Mary Robbins do a bluegrass cut before! This is very nice. I always associated this number with Jim & Jesse and the Virginia Boys, a fine bluegrass band and also stars of the Grand Ole Opry.
