Hello I'm trying to find out what this song's name is. I don't know the melody or the complete lyric, I just remember a hint of it so it might be a tough one.. "Why can't ... Birds do all the time ..." or something like that.. Any help of hints are appreciated.. Doc-Z

Cole Porter: Let's Do It, Let's Fall In Love? "Birds do it, bees do it, Even educated fleas do it." Burt Bacharach: Close to You? "Why do birds Suddenly appear Every time You are near?" Lynyrd Skynyrd: Free Bird? Can you hum a few bars?  :~0

Sorry, It's something that is sitting far back in my memory, i'm sure it's a pretty old song, and should be a jazz standard or something simular in age. None of those you mentioned though. I distinctly remember it having "Birds do all the time" in the lyric, I think it is something like "why can't we? birds do all the time.." but that's all.. maybe I'll come up with more later. Thanks for trying though :) Doc-Z
