If You Were A Bluebird - Joe Ely

If you were a bluebird, honey, you’d be a sad one

I’d give you a true word but you’ve already had one

If you were a bluebird, you’d be crying

You’d be flying home

If you were a raindrop, you’d shine like a rainbow

And if you were a train stop, the conductor would sing low

If you were a raindrop, you’d be falling

You’d be calling home

If you were a hotel, honey, you’d be a grand one

But, if you hit a slow spell, do you think you could stand one?

If you were a hotel, I’d lean on your doorbell

I’d call you my home

If I was a highway, I’d stretch alongside you

I’d help you pass by ways that had dissatisfied you

If I was a highway, I’d be stretchin'

I’d be fetchin' you home

If you were a bluebird, honey, you’d be a sad one

I’d give you a true word but you’ve already had one

If you were a bluebird, you’d be crying

You’d be flying home
