Paint Me A Birmingham Lyrics

Paint Me A Birmingham lyrics

He was sitting’ there, his brush in hand
Painting’ waves as they
danced, upon the sand
With every stroke, he brought to life
The deep blue
of the ocean, against the morning’ sky
I asked him if he only painted
ocean scenes
He said for twenty dollars, I’ll paint you
anything

Could you Paint Me A Birmingham
Make it look just the way I
planned
A little house on the edge of town
Porch going’ all the way
around
Put her there in the front yard swing
Cotton dress make it, early
spring
For a while she’ll be, mine again
If you can Paint Me A
Birmingham

He looked at me, with knowing eyes
Then took a canvas from
a bag there by his side
Picked up a brush, and said to me
Son just where
in this picture would you like to be
And I said if there’s any way you
can
Could you paint me back into her arms again?

Could you Paint Me A
Birmingham
Make it look just the way I planned
A little house on the edge
of town
Porch going’ all the way around
Put her there in the front
yard swing
Cotton dress make it, early spring
For a while she’ll
be, mine again
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham

Paint Me A
Birmingham
Make it look just the way I planned
A little house on the edge
of town
Porch going’ all the way around
Put her there in the front
yard swing
Cotton dress make it, early spring
For a while she’ll
be, mine again
If you can Paint Me A Birmingham

Oh paint me a
Birmingham
