Bluebird
I've been going down that long lonesome road
Boy i've been doing it for a while
I've been going down tha long lonesome road
Boy looking for that special smile
I work the bars, New York to Frisco
I can never seem to make it pay
You know how money is
It slips right through your fingers
One more dollar, one more day
The bluebird has no money
Bluebird has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind
I've been going down that same old road, boy
Like the world I'm adding on some years
I've put a hundred million
Quarters in the jukebox
I bought a barrel full of beers
You know I've listened to some
Troubles in my life, now
Seen a lot of grown men cry
You know that old tune, "Over the Rainbow?"
The bluebird flies, why can't I?
The bluebird has no money
Bluebird has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind
I live my life like there ain't no tomorrow
Yes I always have and always will
Behind me all my yesterdays go
Stretching out like boxcars
Disappearing round some hill
I always thought life was for living
Nothing is as easy as it seems
Like the bluebird I will fly away
And I'll find a rainbow in my dreams
The bluebird has no money
Bluebird has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind
