I`d rather be a sparrow than a snail
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
I`d rather be a hammer than a nail
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
Away, I`d rather sail away
Like a swan that`s here and gone
A man gets tired out to the ground
He gives the world
Its saddest sound
Its saddest sound
I`d rather be a forest than a street
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
I`d rather feel the earth beneath my feet
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would
