[Verse 1]
There's a hundred bluebirds
Up above the clouds
Putting all the color in the sky

[Verse 2]
And twice as many teardrops
There to wash it down
Every one's another lullaby

[Chorus]
But there's only one and only
Who could go and leave me lonely

[Verse 3]
There's a world of trouble
Trying to take its turn
I can hear it shaking underground

[Verse 4]
Half a dozen lessons
I might never learn
Not until them troubles come around

[Chorus]
But there's only one and only
Who could go and leave me lonely
[Verse 5]
There's a mile of blacktop
Where the road begins
It takes a time or two to recognize

[Verse 6]
Growing at the roadside
Scattered by the wind
Are everybody's unsaid sad goodbyes

[Chorus]
But there's only one and only
Who could go and leave me lonely

[Outro]
But there's only one and only
Who could go and leave me lonely
