Dave Matthews Band - Little Red Bird lyrics
[Dave Matthews Band - Little Red Bird lyrics]
Little red bird under a chair
Waiting for the crumbs to fall
"Daddy said, 'Get a job'
But, don't you see, daddy
How good I am at catching crumbs?"
Guns and gods and little red birds
Guns and gods and little red birds
General Custer, it's said
Overestimated his abilities to win
Sitting Bull turned the table on him
A comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost little red bird
Guns and gods and little red birds
Guns and gods and little red birds
A comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost
Comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost
Guns and gods and little red birds
Guns and gods and little red birds
Comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost
If there was a place hidden in the stars
Reflected on heaven's graces
If God had an honest face
A troubled expression would be
Watching the human race little red bird
Waiting for the crumbs to fall
"Daddy said, 'Get a job'
But, don't you see, daddy
How good I am at catching crumbs?"
Guns and gods and little red birds
Guns and gods and little red birds
General Custer, it's said
Overestimated his abilities to win
Sitting Bull turned the table on him
A comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost little red bird
Guns and gods and little red birds
Guns and gods and little red birds
A comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost
Comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost
Guns and gods and little red birds
Guns and gods and little red birds
Comfort to count the battles won
After the war is lost
If there was a place hidden in the stars
Reflected on heaven's graces
If God had an honest face
A troubled expression would be
Watching the human race little red bird
