Got tired of livin' in that one horse town
|
When to the station flagged that hummingbird down
|
I didn't even call to say goodbye
|
I couldn't stand to see that little girl cry
|
Now I'm walkin' to the city gonna make my name
|
Those lights were callin' me to fortune and fame
|
I had to ride that hummingbird just let me ride that hummingbird
|
I'm gonna make it now just any day
|
I've got this guitar and I came to play
|
Lyin' here lonely knowin' what I lost
|
My heart keeps asking was it worth the cost
|
Now ain't it funny how that always seems
|
Once you're standing there and the grass ain't so green
|
Why did I ride that hummingbird why did I ride that hummingbird
|
Oh today she called me on the telephone
|
She said hey country boy you been gone too long
|
And now I'm standin' at the station looking down the line
|
Here comes that hummingbird and she's right on time
|
I'm gonna ride that hummingbird just let me ride that hummingbird
|
I'm gonna ride just let me ride that hummingbird
|
