Bird On A Wire

Bird On A Wire - Johnny Cash (約翰尼·卡什)

Like a bird on a wire Like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free Like a fish on a hook

Like a knight in some old fashioned book

I have saved all my ribbons with thee

And if I if I have been unkind

I just hope you will let it go by

And if I if I have been untrue I hope you know it was never to you

Like a baby stillborn Like a beast with his horn

I have torn everyone who reached out for me

But I swear by this song

And by all that I have done wrong

I'll make it all up to you

I saw a youngman leaning on his wooden crutch

He called out to me Don't ask for so much

And a youngwoman leaning in her darkened door

She cried out to me

Why not ask for more

Like a bird on a wire

Like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free
