[Verse 1]
When I look out my window
There’s a robin looking at me
He’s saying “m heading southbound
Would you like to join me?”

But I can’t oblige him
So I explain for him to see
Humans aren’t like birds
We can’t escape our miseries

[Chorus]
But I’m doing my best
To get these songs of mine
Played on the radio
So I can make a dime
And I write these songs
And you’re welcome to sing along
So pour me something strong
And I’ll yodel my way home

[Verse 2]
Whiskey starts to hit me
I doze off for the night
I think about that robin
And how much fun it’d be to fly
[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m doing my best
To get these songs of mine
Played on the radio
Just so I can make a dime
And I write these songs
And you’re welcome to sing along
So pour me something strong
And I’ll yodel my way home

[Verse 3]
Barely to this bar
And no sight of where you are
You say it’s all about the little things
Just ask a bird about his wings

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m doing my best
To get these songs of mine
Played on the radio
So I can make a god damn dime
And I write these songs
And you’re welcome to sing along
So pour me something strong
And I’ll yodel my way home
[Outro]
Hey boss pour me something strong
And I’ll yodel my way home
