Bird On A Wire - Joe Bonamassa - Black Rock CDLike a bird on the wire,like a drunk in a midnight choirI have tried in my way to be free.Like a worm on a hook,like a knight from some old fashioned bookI 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 untrueI hope you know it was never to you.Like a baby, stillborn,like a beast with his hornI have torn everyone who reached out for me.But I swear by this songand by all that I have done wrongI 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 choirI have tried in my way to be free.
