Suzy Bogguss - Sunday Birmingham lyrics
[Suzy Bogguss - Sunday Birmingham lyrics]
But the crowd was really there tonight and the band played sweet
Well, they'll drive for home tonight, they've loaded up the truck
If I don't leave right now I guess I'm stuck
They had a foot and a half of rain down on the coast last week
But some folks drove up for the show all the way from orange beach
Well, it's midnight now and home's just a couple hundred miles
But I'll stay right here with these nice folks and talk a while
Sunday Birmingham, on a one night stand
If I left right now I'd be home by three
But I'll stay where I am, head down and folded hands
Cause Sunday Birmingham is a damn fine place to be
Now the wedding party's drunk in the hotel bar
Kumquat vodka on the rocks in a mason jar
Matching lilac dresses and pink bow ties
Little sister just got married and we don't like the guy
Sunday Birmingham, on a one night stand
I could still make sunrise home in Tennessee
But I'll stay where I am, head down and folded hands
Cause Sunday Birmingham is a damn fine place to be
Last night this parking lot was a dangerous place
This morning feels like Easter, amazing grace
There's blooms on all the locust and catalpa trees
Church bells and hickory smoke floating on the breeze
Sunday Birmingham, on a one night stand
I could get some sleep and still be home by three
But I'll stay where I am, head down and folded hands
Cause Sunday Birmingham is a damn fine place to be
Sunday Birmingham is a damn fine place to be
