Lyrics:

Like a bird on a wire

Like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free

Like a worm on the hook

Like a knight from some old-fashioned book

I have saved all my ribbons for thee

And if I have been unkind

I hope that you will just let it go by

And if I have been untrue

I hope you know it was never to you

Like a babe 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 will make it all up to thee

I saw a beggar leaning on his wooden crutch

He said to me: "You must not ask for so much"

And the pretty woman leaning in her darkened door

She cried to me: "Hey, why not ask for more?"

Like a bird on the wire

Like a drunk in a midnight choir

I have tried in my way to be free
