[00:17.87]For my openin’ line
[00:20.89]I might try to indicate my state of mind
[00:25.60]or turn you on
[00:27.31]or tell you that I’m laughin’
[00:31.38]just to keep from cryin’
[00:32.96]pretty music, when you hear it,
[00:37.30]keep on tryin’ to get near it
[00:41.52]a little rhythm for your spirit
[00:45.44]but that’s what it’s for
[00:47.55]c’mon in here’s the door
[00:50.00]I’ve seen a sparrow get high
[00:53.60]and waste his time in the sky
[00:57.38]he thinks it’s easy to fly
[01:00.61]he’s just little bit freer than I
[01:04.26]Now here’s a mystery
[01:07.11]maybe you can help to make it clear to me
[01:11.39]When you’re fast asleep
[01:14.63]and than what is that’s lightin’ up the dreams you see
[01:19.68]all your tears can’t conceal it
[01:23.50]all your prayers may not reveal it
[01:27.62]you got soul so you can feel it
[01:31.31]and when you make the scene
[01:33.69]then you’ll know what I mean
[01:35.96]I’ve seen a sparrow get high
[01:39.53]and waste his time in the sky
[01:43.16]he thinks it’s easy to fly
[01:46.66]he’s just little bit freer than I
[02:12.78]Down here on the ground
[02:15.83]when you fine folks are givin’ you the runaround
[02:20.15]keep your game up up-tight
[02:23.45]and if you must just take your secrets underground
[02:28.30]now, politicians try to speech you
[02:31.78]mad color watchers try to teach you
[02:36.32]very few will really try to reach you
[02:39.68]if you’re lost in the stack
[02:42.70]that’s ok come on black
[02:44.26]Now I'd be the last to deny
[02:46.82]that I'm just an average guy
[02:51.94]and don't you know each little bird in the sky
[02:56.01]Is just a little bit freer than I
[02:59.10]Ordinary Joe, Although they say you’re just a lazy so and so
[03:05.97]what they think is real
[03:09.56]is nothing but an animated puppet show
[03:14.68]So don’t let time and space confuse you
[03:18.41]don’t let name and form abuse you
[03:22.15]let Big Joe Williams blues you
[03:25.97]in the light of the sun you can see how they run
[03:30.57]I’ve seen a sparrow get high
[03:34.12]and waste his time in the sky
[03:37.65]Don't you know he thinks it’s easy to fly
[03:41.57]he’s just little bit freer than I
