sometimes i feel like a sparrow

sometimes i feel like a sparrow sold for a penny or two
cause the road i travel was cleared by a fool
and a thief and a charmer they wrote the rules
sometimes i feel like a sparrow

sometimes i feel like a whore who will sell it all for cheap
if it's all that i got cause a girl's got to eat
well, it ain't what i want, but it's all that i see
sometimes i feel like a whore

so, tell me, tell me where do i go
when i'm homesick for the place that never felt like home
now, tell me, tell me where do i go
when i'm lonesome for the arms that left me alone

sometimes i feel like a burden to everyone that i know
and if i could float away i'd come back like snow
well, it ain't all the time, but it's more than you know
sometimes i feel like a burden

sometimes i feel like an anchor on a boat trying to sail away
well, if you could pull me up we could find a better day
well, i swear to you i'm trying to find my way
but sometimes i feel like an anchor

so, tell me, tell me where do i go
when i'm homesick for the place that never felt like home
and tell me, tell me where do i go
when i'm lonesome for the arms that left me alone

cause sometimes i feel like a sparrow sold for a penny or two
cause the road i travel was cleared by a fool
and a theif and a charmer they wrote the rules

sometimes i feel like a sparrow
sometimes i feel like a sparrow
sometimes i feel like a sparrow
