Bird With A Clipped Wing Lyrics

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Trying to survive

See the nest aint a home

It's just a place where they lay

Alone in the jungle

As they all fly away

Try to girt up my loins

And try to fly with the crowd

Every time I try flapping

I fall to the ground

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Trying to fly

We done fell to the ground

Can't go no way but above

They may be looking and laughing

But his heart is so tough

He knew the day would come

That he would be in the sky

No one else could say no

No they could not deny

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Soaring so high

He was born to fly

He was born to win

All they see is without

But there's something within

You hear the birds a chirping

That bird is right in your ear

And I'm telling you now

That bird is standing right here

And I say this for birds

The birds all over the land

You might have you a clipped wing

But baby go head and stand

See I say this for you

No matter what is at hand

No matter what the dilemma

Hold your head up and stand

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing

Just a bird with a clipped wing
