Bird In A Cage Lyrics - Singles - Old 97's

I left you last night on the left coast 

I'm writin' you a letter right now 

The things that you do are rendering you 

Something I can't live without 

Maybe maybe I've got a pulse now 

Maybe my heart's on fire 

A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

Left you last night on the left side 

The land of the free to be burned 

Well the heat of your touch is makin' it such 

That I've forgotten everything I've learned 

Maybe maybe I've got a problem 

Maybe my heart's a liar 

A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

And I may be a bird in a cage 

But it least it's your cage 

And I may be a bird in a cage 

But it least it's your cage 

Left you last night on the left half 

Of the bed, the half that used to be mine 

The way that you sleep is the image I'll keep 

Always on the edge of my mind 

Maybe maybe I've got a reason 

For livin' even though I'm so tired 

A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

Yeah a bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

And I may be a bird in a cage 

But it least it's your cage 

And I may be a bird in a cage 

But it least it's your cage 

Maybe maybe you are the only 

One my heart's desired 

A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire 

A bird in the hand is worth a bird in a cage 

Is worth a bird on a telephone wire
