ray wylie hubbard - hummingbird lyrics
[verse 1]
now a hummingbird is a little critter
wings flutter so fast, they’re always blurred
they’re beautiful, dazzling, sparkling things
and there’s a guitar that’s called a hummingbird
it’s a square+shouldered dreadnought made by gibson
mahogany back and sides, the top is spruce
there’s a hummingbird drinking from a trumpet flower
on a pickguard, the color rosé mateus
[chorus]
a hummingbird, hummingbird
mm, hummingbird
[verse 2]
make a joyful noise to the lord (hallelujah)
that’s from the book of psalms in the holy world (yes, brother)
i’m joyful playing old time gospel
in the key of g on my hummingbird
[chorus]
hummingbird, hummingbird
mm, hummingbird
[verse 3]
now when the roll’s called to beyond
i sure pray my name is heard
and if i pass through the pearly gates (yeah)
hope st. peter will let me bring my hummingbird
[chorus]
hummingbird (hummingbird)
hummingbird (hummingbird)
mm, hummingbird
hummingbird (hummingbird)
hummingbird (hummingbird)
mm, hummingbird
