Feather Your Nest 1920

Oh sweetheart mine, it's wedding time,
the whole world seems to say;
the summer days are fading,
into loveland let us stray;
birds sing merrily,
high up in each tree,
and sweetheart they sing messages.
Just for you and me.

The birds are humming:
"go feather your nest,"
tomorrow's coming
so feather your nest.
It's time for mating,
no use hesitating,
the parson is waiting,
he knows just whether it's best,
in a home for two, love,
together we'll rest.
Where only true love
can weather the test.
Don't be delaying,
the organ is playing,
the whole world is saying:
"Go feather your nest."

The birds are humming:
"go feather your nest,"
tomorrow's coming
so feather your nest.
It's time for mating,
no use hesitating,
the parson is waiting,
he knows just whether it's best,
in a home for two, love,
together we'll rest.
Where only true love
can weather the test.
Don't be delaying,
the organ is playing,
the whole world is saying:
"Go feather your nest."

Your heart is beating peacefully
when friends are fond and true,
the world is filled with gladness
when the one you love loves you;
mountains of the sea
over we may roam,
the path that leads to love sweet love,
leads to home sweet home.

The birds are humming:
"go feather your nest,"
tomorrow's coming
so feather your nest.
It's time for mating,
no use hesitating,
the parson is waiting,
he knows just whether it's best,
in a home for two, love,
together we'll rest.
Where only true love
can weather the test.
Don't be delaying,
the organ is playing,
the whole world is saying:
"Go feather your nest."

The birds are humming:
"go feather your nest,"
tomorrow's coming
so feather your nest.
It's time for mating,
no use hesitating,
the parson is waiting,
he knows just whether it's best,
in a home for two, love,
together we'll rest.
Where only true love
can weather the test.
Don't be delaying,
the organ is playing,
the whole world is saying:
"Go feather your nest."
