See the bluebird flyin' easy as a dream
dippin' and bobbin' in the sun
Could she be the one I saw so long ago
could she be the one to take me home

This pasture is green I'm walking in the sun
It's turning brown I'm standing in the rain
My overcoat is worn the pockets are all torn
I'm moving away from the pain

Tick tock the clock on the wall
No wonder we're losin time
Ring ring the old church bell
The bride and her love
Seeking guidance from above

Amber waves of grain bow in the prairie wind
I'm hearin' willie singing on the rail again
That song from 911 keeps ringin in my head
I'll always remember somethin' Chris Rock said

Don't send more candles no matter what you do
Then Willie stopped singin' and the prairie wind blew
The grain kept rollin on for miles and miles
Fields of fuel rollin' on for miles

Tick tock  the clock on the wall
No wonder we're losin time
Torn torn the fallen soldier fell 
The old church on the hill 
Still standin' when so many fell

Back when I was young the birds blocked out the sun
Before the great migration stopped
We only shot a few they last the winter through
Mother cooked them good and served them up

Somewhere a senator sits in a leather chair
Behind a big wooden desk
The caribou he killed mean nothing to him
He took his money just like all the rest

Tick tock the clock on the wall
No wonder we're losin' time
Ring ring ring the wedding bells
The bride takes the ring 
And the happy people sing
