Johnny Winter - Birds Can't Row Boats Lyrics

Johnny Winter Lyrics

"Birds Can't Row Boats"

I wonder as I gaze
Wonder 'bout the statue and his ways
He fought and died, the people cried
And all to make a better life for me
Now he's gone, it's been so long
And all that's left is stone for us to see

I wonder in his life
If his confusion was as deep and fearful as mine
I don't think he'd understand
The mood of people living today
I don't really know
If he would ever want to live in such a way

Statue, you were once a man
Famous for you when we gave a hand
I don't think he'd understand
The mood of people living today
And every man, what sort of man
Rushing in his marches, sure to miss
