[Introduction] x4 [Verse 1] I’m a house wren hunting for a house I haven’t found one I’m on the lookout For a home to call my own A private residence    Through the grapevine I heard an empty gourd Is hangin’ up somewhere on some old lady’s porch I’ll pack my bags and off I’ll go To my new humble abode     [Chorus] I’m gonna sing    at the top of my lungs ’cause it’s a beautiful day I’m gonna spread my wings ’Cause as far as I know I am halfway home [Instrumental] x4 [Verse 2] I’m a house wren who needs a summer home A country farmhouse or a quiet bungalow Not too big and not too small First-rate real estate    I got my eyes peeled for a window box An old tin can a boot or a flower pot I’ll pack my bags and off I’ll go To my new humble abode    [Chorus] I’m gonna sing    at the top of my lungs ’cause it’s a beautiful day I’m gonna spread my wings ’Cause as far as I know I am halfway home [Instrumental] x4 [Verse 3] I’m a house wren still hunting for a house But I got a song and a lot to sing about I’ll pack my bags and off I’ll go Because you know    [Chorus] I’m gonna sing at the top of my lungs ’cause it’s a beautiful day I’m gonna spread my wings I’m on top of the world And it’s a beautiful thing I’m gonna sing    at the top of my lungs ’cause it’s a beautiful day I’m gonna spread my wings ’Cause as far as I know I am halfway home [Outro] I am halfway home
