If you were a bluebird you'd be a sad one 
I'd give you a true word 
But you've already had one 
If you were a bluebird
you'd be crying 
You'd be flying home 
If you were a raindrop 
You'd shine like a rainbow 
And if you were a train stop
The conductor would sing low 
If you were a raindrop
You'd be falling 
You'd be calling home 

If you were a hotel 
Honey, you'd be a grand one 
But, if you hit a slow spell
Do you think you could stand one 
If you were a hotel
Well I'd lean on your doorbell 
I'd call you my home 
If I was a highway 
I'd stretch alongside you 
I'd help you pass by ways 
That had dissatisfied you 
If I was a highway 
Well I'd be stretchin' 
I'd be fetchin' you home
