tommy cash (usa) - jailbirds can't fly lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, what i’d give to be with my marie
to hold her close and walk again through meadows green
to see again the tender love light shining from her eyes
to walk among the ones i love, but jailbirds can’t fly

[verse 2]
oh, what i’d give to see my old dad and mom
it seems that i can hear them saying, “hurry home, my son”
i can feel the soft lips of my marie as we kissed goodbye
i long to fly straight to her arms, but jailbirds can’t fly

[chorus]
no, it can’t be, no, not for me
these walls are too high
and jailbirds can’t fly

[verse 3]
tomorrow, when dawn comes, and they set me in that chair
soon i’ll be with my marie, but i’ll no longer care
then they’ll place me on that big silver plane that sails the homeward skies
but from the walls of that pine box, jailbirds can’t fly

[chorus]
no, it can’t be, no, not for me
these walls are too high
and jailbirds can’t fly
