Ray Stevens - Dixie Hummingbird lyrics
[Ray Stevens - Dixie Hummingbird lyrics]
Okay, here's a song about
My sweetheart down south
Now you might ask, "Is she a fox?"
Oh, shut your mouth
But her mama taught her to
Be seen and not heard
So when she's having a good time, whoa
she coos like a bird
Well, she hails from Atlanta
She got a soft southern style
And the way she's put
Together, holy mackerel, honey chile
Ah, she don't like conversation, no
She's never been one to chat
But when she holds me close, good Lord
She knows exactly where it's at
She gets down to the nitty gritty
She don't waste a lot of time
We start to spoon and pretty soon
She's humming "Georgia on My Mind"
And when she makes those kinky
Little sounds in my ear
They're not in any dictionary
But she's coming through loud and clear
Yeah, my baby says she loves
Me without a single word
She's my Dixie hummingbird
Well, now she hardly ever speaks
I guess she never finds the need
But, you must admit that a thousand words
Don't stack up to the deed
She lets her actions do the talking and
She tries so hard to please
And is mighty fine
She's all mine and I'm her main squeeze
Yeah, she's really saying something with
A language all her own
Well, she may not know the words
But she can really hum along
And when she makes those kinky
Little sounds in my ear
They're not in any dictionary
But she's coming through loud and clear
My baby says she loves me
Without a single word
She's my Dixie hummingbird
When my baby says she loves
Me without a single word
She's my Dixie hummingbird
My sweetheart down south
Now you might ask, "Is she a fox?"
Oh, shut your mouth
But her mama taught her to
Be seen and not heard
So when she's having a good time, whoa
she coos like a bird
Well, she hails from Atlanta
She got a soft southern style
And the way she's put
Together, holy mackerel, honey chile
Ah, she don't like conversation, no
She's never been one to chat
But when she holds me close, good Lord
She knows exactly where it's at
She gets down to the nitty gritty
She don't waste a lot of time
We start to spoon and pretty soon
She's humming "Georgia on My Mind"
And when she makes those kinky
Little sounds in my ear
They're not in any dictionary
But she's coming through loud and clear
Yeah, my baby says she loves
Me without a single word
She's my Dixie hummingbird
Well, now she hardly ever speaks
I guess she never finds the need
But, you must admit that a thousand words
Don't stack up to the deed
She lets her actions do the talking and
She tries so hard to please
And is mighty fine
She's all mine and I'm her main squeeze
Yeah, she's really saying something with
A language all her own
Well, she may not know the words
But she can really hum along
And when she makes those kinky
Little sounds in my ear
They're not in any dictionary
But she's coming through loud and clear
My baby says she loves me
Without a single word
She's my Dixie hummingbird
When my baby says she loves
Me without a single word
She's my Dixie hummingbird
