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
And now I'm off to the city
gonna make my name
Those lights are callin' me to
fortune and fame

(CHORUS)
I had to ride that hummingbird
Just let me ride that hummingbird

I'm gonna make it now just any day
I've got my guitar and I came to play
I'm here lonely knowin' what I lost
My heart keeps asking was it worth the cost
And now ain't it funny how it always seems
Once you're standing there
the grass ain't so green

(CHORUS)

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.

(CHORUS)
