Bird on the Wire

歌詞

Like a bird on the wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free Like a worm on a hook Like a knight from some old fashioned book I have saved all my ribbons for thee If I if I have been unkind I hope that you can just let it go by If I if I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you Like a baby stillborn Like a beast with his horn I have torn everyone who reached out for me But I swear by this song And by all that I have done wrong I will make it all up to thee I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch he said to me You must not ask for so much And a pretty woman leaning in her darkened door she cried to me Hey why not ask for more Oh like a bird on the wire like a drunk in a midnight choir I have tried in my way to be free
