Bluebird

Yeah, I'm a turner
I turn pages all the time
Don't like where I'm at
Thirty-four was bad
So I just turn to thirty-five

Yeah, I'm a keeper
I keep digging down for the deep
Like the records I'm playing
They might keep you waiting
But you know I'm only playing for keeps

And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up on my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I'll just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep bluebird in my heart

Well, I'm a giver
Yeah and I'm still giving 'em hell
Forgiving's pretty hard
So I made an art
Out of forgettin' 'em well

Yeah, I'm a rhymer
I can turn twenty cents into a ten
And if I get confused
And I start to lose
I rhyme a dime 'til it all makes sense

And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up on my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I'll just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I turn the light on in my soul
And keep the bluebird in my heart

And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up on my sleeve
And if love starts giving me lemons
Just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep bluebird in my heart

I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep bluebird in my heart
Keep bluebird in my heart
And the bluebird sings
