Nothing But Sky

See that red bird up on the wire?
Well he don’t wonder why
He’s got everything at the tip of his wing
and all he’s got to do is fly

Cause out front is the wild horizon
What’s behind him has all gone by
There’s a whole new day a rising
Up ahead he’s got nothing but sky

There are corn fields close to the river
And the rivers run clear and cold
He finds all he needs in between the trees
No matter which way he goes

Cause out front is the wild horizon
What’s behind him has all gone by
There’s a whole new day a rising
Up ahead he’s got nothing but sky

When we wake up Monday morning
Well we’d all better spread our wings
We’ve got a lot to learn from that old red bird
Who appreciates everything

Cause out front is the wild horizon
What’s behind him has all gone by
There’s a whole new day a rising
Up ahead he’s got nothing but sky, sky
Nothing but sky
