Lyrics

I've been going down that long lonesome road, boy
I've been doing it for a while
I've been going down tha long lonesome road, boy
Looking for that special smile
I work the bars, New York to Frisco
I could never make it pay
You know how money is, it slips right through your fingers
One more dollar, one more day
I've been going down that same old road, boy
Like the world I'm adding on some years
I've shoved a hundred million quarters in the jukebox
I've sold a barrel full of beers
I've listened to some troubles in my life, now
I've seen a lot of grown men cry
You know that old tune, "Over the Rainbow?"
The bluebird flies, why can't I?
The bluebird he has no money
The bluebird he has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind
I live my life like there ain't no tomorrow
Yes I always have and always will
Behind me all my yesterdays go stretching out like boxcars
Disappearing round some hill
I always thought life was for living
Nothing is as easy as it seems
Like the bluebird I will fly away
And I'll find a rainbow in my dreams
The bluebird he has no money
The bluebird he has no kin
The bluebird wears no time-clock
He answers to the wind
