| Today I watched a robin
|
| In our front yard
|
| I thought by now that they schold all be gone.
|
| With winter `round the corner
|
| Snow on it`s way
|
| Surely their must be something wrong.
|
| Then in that old oak tree I finally saw her
|
| Where she sat gazing down upon her mate
|
| And the song that she was singing
|
| Seemed to say `i`ll be right here`
|
| `i`d like to go, but your love`s made me stay.`
|
| He`s got a broken wing
|
| And that`s why he can`t fly
|
| She just can`t leave him there
|
| So she stays by his side
|
| They`re just like you and me Oh you should`ve heard her sing
|
| They won`t give up It`s just a broken wing.
|
| I wish we all could learn
|
| What they seem to have found
|
| To love our families
|
| When trouble comes around
|
| I`ll bet that God saw fit
|
| To show them unto me Him on the ground
|
| Her in that tree.
|
| He`s got a broken wing
|
| And that`s why he can`t fly
|
| She just can`t leave him there
|
| So she stays by his side
|
| They`re just like you and me Oh you should`ve heard her sing
|
| They won`t give up We won`t give up They won`t give up It`s just a broken wing.
|
| Ooooooooh…
|
| It`s just a broken wing. |
