The Folks

I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail
Yes I would
If I could, I surely would
Hmm mmmI'd rather be a hammer than a nail
Yes I would
If I only could, I surely would
Hmm mmmAway, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world its saddest sound, its saddest sound
Hmm mmmI'd rather be a forest than a street
Yes I would
If I could, I surely would
