Wise Old Me - Willie Nelson (威利·纳尔逊)

One day I had the notion

To teach a fish to fly

So I went down to the ocean

When the tide was plenty high

Found a fish we talked

And I pointed to the sky

But he didn't even try

No he didn't even try

No one listens to wise old me

And I know hot things ought to be

I ain't blind but sure don't see

Why no one listens to wise old me

One day I said to me

Let's teach a bird to swim

So I climbed way up a tree

And I went out on a limb

Found a bird we talked

And I pointed to the sea

But that bird just sang to me

That bird just sang to me

As sure as clouds live in the sky

There's a place for you and I

If you don't learn to let things be

You'll find your wise self up a tree

Now please do not be frightened

By the things that sound absurd

As how man can be enlightened

By the wisdom of a bird

And so can you so let it be

A lesson for today

And may I never hear you say

May I never hear you say

No one listens to wise old me

And I know hot things ought to be

I ain't blind but I sure don't see

Why no one listens to wise old me

No one listens to wise old me
