Well if I'm alone, will you take my hand

Would you stand by me in the pouring rain
With my seven sins and my contraband

To Gonesville

Hear that whistle moan, here come the misery train
For they say it might rain forever, but it sure can't rain on me

Oh, say little bluebird, if I was like you
G# D#
I might fly from my cares, like the mockingbirds do
I might fly from my troubles, if I was a crow

But well, I'm just a man but I'll still know where to go
[Chorus]
