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

But if I stayed with you girl
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, bye baby it's been a sweet love
Though this feeling I can't change
But please don't take it so badly
'Cause the Lord knows I'm to blame

But if I stayed here with you girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you'll never change

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
I'm a free bird
