OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
*I'm tired of livin' in this one-horse town
Goin' to the station, flag that hummingbird down

Walk around that corner girl, see saw your own
Allemande that corner girl, you're gonna weave the ring
**Well, city lights are calling me to fortune and fame
Swing your girl and promenade the same
I'm gonna ride ...
That hummingbird ...


FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Head (side) couples promenade you go halfway you go
Side (head) pair do the right & left thru and turn 'em you know
Flutter wheel straight across, sweep 1/4 more
Pass thru with a dosado and do an eight chain four
Here comes that hummingbird, she's right on time
Swing a little corner, promenade down that line
Come on let's ride ...
That hummingbird ...


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*Standin' at the station, lookin' down the line
I'm gonna board that train most any time


*Standin' at the station, today is the day
I've got this guitar and I'm coming to play


**I'm gonna ride ... that hummingbird
Swing that girl and promenade

TAG

Sides face grand square half
I'm gonna ride...
