bird on the wire - paul kelly lyrics
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
and if i, if i’ve been unkind
i hope that you can just let it go by
if i, if i’ve been untrue
i hope you know it was never to you
like a baby, stillborn
like a beast with his h*rn
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?”
like a bird on the wire
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free
