Bluebird

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
The bluebird has no money
Bluebird has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind

[Verse 2]
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?

[Chorus]
The bluebird has no money
Bluebird has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
The bluebird has no money
Bluebird has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind
