Silver Bird Lyrics


This morning as I walked, I gazed out across my land
Lying there all still lying there upon the sand
A big silver bird had planted itself into the ground
And being the kind of person who isn't very easily alarmed
Decided to take a walk to see just what I could find
Walked around the walls, tapping to find me a door
Looking for a windows to see if I could find out more
Big silver bird let me inside your plane
Want to fly so high fly me high, away
All of a sudden the door slid back and someone was there
A strange kind of being spoke to me in my tongue
"step inside, we'll take you away in our plane
We'll fly you so high, you'll never have the chance to complain
To leave this earth, never even (? ? ? ) ...
Stepping inside I fixed myself into a seat
Holding on, lord, I heard them engines start to beat
Big silver bird let me inside your plane

Want to fly so high, fly me high away
(instrumental part)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Formed in Melbourne Australia, Collard Greens and Gravy have been regaling fans with their unique style of stripped down swamp blues since 1995.

Performing a mix of original material and covers by Mississippi blues artists such as R.L Burnside, T Model Ford and Fred McDowell, the band have created a sound which saw them win the 2001 ARIA award for best blues and roots CD.

In February 2001 Collard Greens and Gravy, competing against more than 50 bands from around the world were awarded runners up in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee. To qualify for entry the band representing Australia won the local Blues Performer of the year competition held by the Melbourne Blues Society.

Since then the band have returned twice to tour the US, playing festivals and bars from New Orleans to New York. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
