[Verse 2]

Listening to the music on the radio
Drinking all the Bluebird we can hold
[Chorus]
And it's all right

A belly full of baby's Bluebird Wine
[Chorus]
And it's all right
I've just hit my stride
The party just started
Lord, I'm drunk on Bluebird Wine
And it's all right
I've just hit my stride
Right off the bat
Lord, I'm drunk on Bluebird Wine
