5,000 light years from Birdland
But I'm still preachin' the rhythm
Long-gone, uptight years from Birdland
An' I'm still teachin' it with 'em

Year from the land of the Birdland
An' I'm still feelin' the spirit
5,000 light years from Birdland
But I know people can hear it

Bird named it, Bird made it,
Bird heard it, then played it
Well-stated! Birdland
It happened down in Birdland
Yeah!
In the middle of that hub
I remember one jazz club
Where we went to pat feet
Down on fifty-secon' street

Everybody heard that word
That they named it after Bird
Where the rhythm swooped and swirled
The jazz corner of the world
An' the cats they gigged in there
We're beyond compare

Birdland-I'm singin' Birdland
Birdland-I'm singin' Birdland

Down them stairs, loos them cares-where?
Down in Birdland
Total swing, bap was king-there
Down in Birdland
Bird would cook, Max would look-where?
Down in Birdland
Miles came through, 'Trane came too-there
Down in Birdland
Basie blew, Blakey too-where?
Down in Birdland
Cannonball played that hall-there
Down in Birdland

Yeah!

Yes, indeed, he did
Yarbird Parker played in Birdland
Yes, indeed, he did
Charlie Parker played in Birdland

Bird name it, Bird made it
Bird heard it, then played it
Well stated! Birdland
It happened down in Birdland

Yeah!

Everybody dug that beat
Everybody stomped their feet
Everybody digs be-bop
An' they'll never stop

Down them stairs, loos them cares-where?
Down in Birdland
Total swing, bap was king-there
Down in Birdland
Bird would cook, Max would look-where?
Down in Birdland
Miles came through, 'Trane came too-there
Down in Birdland
Basie blew, Blakey too-where?
Down in Birdland
Cannonball played that hall-there
Down in Birdland
