A bluebird a wingin' his lonely way south
G7 F C
Tryin' to escape from the cold and the drought
He's all alone in the cold grey sky
G7 F G7 C
Fly little bluebird fly fly fly
F C
North wind a blowin' oh so cold
G7
Poor little birdie's so brave and so bold
C
He just keeps a flyin' for a southern sky
G7 F G7 C
His only hope is to fly fly fly
Well he's not the only one that's on that trail
G7 F C
This ole boy he just broke jail
Always a runnin' always afraid
G7 F G7 C
The good Lord above knows I've paid paid paid
F C
Train whistle moanin' oh so low
G7
And I don't even know where to go
C
I just keep a following the risin' sun
G7 F G7 C
My only hope is to run run run
Well I would like to give up and turn myself in
G7 F C
But they would only bury me under the pen
So I'll keep a running until the day I die
G7 F G7 C
The thought of this it makes me wanna cry cry cry
F C
Train whistle moanin' oh so low
G7
And I don't even know where to go
C
I just keep a following the risin' sun
G7 F G7 C
My only hope is to run run run
A bluebird a wingin' his lonely way south

Tryin' to escape from the cold and the drought
He's all alone in the cold grey sky
