Bluebird

[Verse 1]
I've been going down that long lonesome road, man
And I've been doing it for a while
I've been going down that long lonesome road, man
Looking for a special smile

Now I work the bars, New York to Frisco
I could never make it pay
You know how money goes, it slips right through your fingers
One more dollar, one more day

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

[Verse 2]
I've been going down that same old road, babe
Like the world I'm adding on some years
I've shoved a hundred million quarters in the jukebox
I've served a barrel full of beers

Now I've listened to some troubles in my lifetime
I've seen a lot of grown men cry
You know that old tune called "Over the Rainbow?"
Well, if the bluebird flies, then why can't I?

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

[Verse 3]
I've always lived 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

Now, I always thought that life was for living
But nothing is as easy as it seems
Well, I wished I was a bluebird flying
I guess I'm always trying to find a rainbow in my dreams

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