Alistair M. Cowan lyrics

Bird In The Sky

I sold my life for a bucket of silver and gold,
Car boot my memories to people I don't know,
Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.

I paid my dues and I've settled the bills I owe,
I'll play my hand I'm in a candlelit one man show,
Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.
She's flying south where I wanna go.
Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.
Don't wanna mamma but I got to go.

I got my ticket and I said my last goodbye,
I got no reason just a pleasing what I feel inside,
Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.
She's flying south where I wanna go.
Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.
Don't wanna mamma but I got to go.

Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.
She's flying south where I wanna go.
Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky for me.
Don't wanna mamma but I got to go.

Hey mamma there's a bird in the sky……
