Restless Heart - Hummingbird lyrics

Got tired of living in that one horse town

I went to the station to flag that Hummingbird down

I didn't even call to say good-bye

I couldn't stand to see that little girl cry

Now I'm off to the city, gone and make my name

Those lights are calling me to fortune and fame

I had to ride that Hummingbird

I had to ride that Hummingbird

I'm gonna make it now just any day

I've got this guitar and I came to play

Lying here lonely, knowing what I've lost

My heart keeps asking: Was it worth the cost ?

Now ain't it funny how it always seems

Once you're standing there the grass seems so green

Why did I ride that Hummingbird

I had to ride that Hummingbird

Oh, today she called me on the telephone

She said: Hey country boy, you've been gone too long

And now I'm standing at the station, looking down the line

Here comes that Hummingbird, she's right on time

(that's right)

I'm gonna ride

Just let me ride ...

We're gonna ride ...

Just let me ride ...
