johnny cash - bird on a wire (live with orchestra) lyrics
[intro]
like a bird on a wire
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free
[verse]
like a fish on a hook
like a knight from an old fashioned book
i have saved all my ribbons with thee
and if i have been unkind
i hope that you will just let it go by
and if i have 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
by all i have done wrong
i’ll make it all up to you
i saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch
he called out to me “don’t ask for so much”
and a young man leaning on his darkened door
he cried out to me “hey, why not ask for more”
[outro]
like a bird on a wire
like a drunk in a midnight choir
i have tried in my way to be free
