lyrics

SUGARBIRD
one time around..to
<<<<lick>>>>>
She don’t fly straight
So I’ve heard
she runs around like a sugarbird
And if there’s nothing on your table
she just rambles down the line

Some have tried to hold on tight
Keep her longer than the night
But they don’t understand
Her mind changes with the wind
That Sugarbird
That Sugarbird

<<<<lick>>>>>
So don’t try to tie her down
Because her feet don’t touch the ground
and she won’t be there tomorrow if love you don’t provi-i-ide
That sugarbird

(fiddle over break - long notes)
Tension starts to fade out (whoo - hoo hoo)
With the rising of the sun (whoo - hoo hoo)
And she’ll leave you played out just for fun
That sugarbird

<<<<lick>>>>
She won’t apologize
for her need to socialize
and she won’t be there tomorrow if love you don’t provi-i-ide_____
That sugarbird

(fiddle over break - long notes

Tension starts to fade out (whoo - hoo hoo)
With the rising of the sun (whoo - hoo hoo)
And she’ll leave you played out just for fun..XTD just for fun..........

Solo -
That Sugarbird
Sugarbird
if there’s nothing on your table
she just rambles down the line________turn around
if there’s nothing on your table she just rambles down the line
