Wild bird |
| stickin' on the back of my mind, |
| a strange inclination growing on me |
| for I been so long trapped in a tin can working my way through guitar places |
| so many faces I don’t even know the names of |
| Just like a wild bird, I’m coming home to you darling |
| Just like a wild bird, I’m coming home |
| I’ve got to turn my head around, |
| and shake the dust off this old town |
| just like a wild bird I’m coming home |
| God knows I been on the road too long |
| watching the miles roll up some other town |
| through faded jeans and down home scenes |
| I’ve had my fun, I needed a sun vacation |
| Just like a wild bird, I’m coming home to you darling |
| Just like a wild bird, I’m coming home |
| I’ve got to turn my head around, |
| and shake the dust off this old town |
| just like a wild bird I’m coming home |
| Over my shoulder down the past five years, |
| I see the faces of old friends, I reach out and hold them near |
| I wonder how it was I couldn’t bend down and lend an ear to you a stranger |
| get-ins, sit-ins, pull-outs and pull-ins and sour coffee in the early mornin' |
| drive-ins, well |
| it don’t take much to realize, that you’re only so much money in the big mans |
| eyes |
| and for every singin' mother’s son, I figure the chances are about ten thousand |
| to one, of ever makin' it |
| now I used to believe that to be a star, you laid a much better song on a good |
| guitar and |
| before you could say, Hey Presto here I am well there you are, an overnight |
| sensation |
| So baby I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| Yes baby I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| Oh baby I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| To you I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| Just like a wild bird, (Just like wild bird, just like a wild bird, |
| like a wild bird, a wild bird) |
| sometimes I sail above the crystal morning, |
| see the world through a Perspex window |
| I’ve drunk the wine in the highest places, |
| and spread my soul in desert spaces, |
| but all the time with one eye on the clock I knew in my heart of hearts I was |
| runnin' on a time fuse |
| I met a man he said «boy you sound fine, just pin your name on the dotted line» |
| I think you’ll find half of what you make is not your own |
| you blink an eye and the other half will soon be gone |
| you sign it all with such good intent and by the time you’ve paid the devil his |
| ten percent |
| there might be just enough left over, to feed the wife and kids and pay the |
| rent if you don’t weaken |
| So baby I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| Yes baby I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| Oh baby I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| To you I’m coming home (I'm comin, I’m comin on home) |
| I’m like a wild bird, I’m coming home to you darling |
| Just like a wild bird, I’m coming home |
| I’ve got to turn my head around, and shake the dust off this old town |
| just like a wild bird I’m coming home |
