 Got crows in my pasture
 Rats in my barn
 Crows in my pasture, babe
 Rats in my barn
 If I was you,  little bluebird
 I’d up and find another  farm
 I’ve got nightshade in my meadow
 Ragweed in my corn
 Nightshade in my meadow
 And ragweed in my corn
 If I was you,  little bluebird
 I’d be long gone

 Yes, I got squirrels in my rafters
 Weevils in my hay
 Squirrels in my rafters
 Weevils in my hay
 If I was you,  little bluebird
 I’d up and fly  away
 Fly away, baby
