Lyrics:

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be travelin' on now
There's too many places I got to see

And if I stay here with you, boy
Things just couldn't be the same

'Cause I'm as free as a bird, now
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows I can't change


Bye and bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah
Though this feelin' I can't change
Please don't take it so badly
Lord knows I'm to blame

And if I stay here with you, boy
Things just couldn't be the same

'Cause I'm as free as a bird, now
And this bird you cannot change, woah
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows I can't change
Lord, help me, I can't change

Lord, I can't change
So won't you fly high, free bird?
