lirik lagu willie nelson – wise old me
[verse 1]
one day i got the notion to teach a fish to fly
so i went down to the ocean when the tide was plenty high
found a fish, we talked, and i pointed to the sky
but he didn’t even try, no, he didn’t even try
[chorus]
no one listens to wise old me
and i know how things ought to be
i ain’t blind but sure don’t see
why no one listens to wise old me
[verse 2]
one day i said to me, “let’s teach a bird to swim”
so i climbed way up a tree and i went out on a limb
found a bird, we talked, and i pointed to the sea
and that bird just sang to me, that bird just sang to me
as sure as clouds live in the sky, there’s a place for you and i
if you don’t learn to let things be you’ll find your wise self up a tree
now, please do not be frightened by the things that sound absurd
as how man can be enlightened by the wisdom of a bird
and so can you, so let it be a lesson for today
and may i never hear you say, may i never hear you say
[chorus]
no one listens to wise old me
and i know how things ought to be
i ain’t blind but sure don’t see
why no one listens to wise old me
no one listens to wise old me
