Paint me a Birmingham by Tracy Lawrence

V1
he was sittin there, his brush in hand
paintin 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 scens
he said "for twenty dollars,
well i'll paint you anything"
Chorus
Could you paint me a birmingham
make it look just the way i planned
a little house on th edge of town
porch goin 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 could paint me a birmingham
V2
he looked at me with knowing eyes
and took a canvase from a bag right by his side
he took a brush and said to me
"Son just where in this picture
would you like to be?'
and i said "if theres anyway you can,
could you paint back into her arms again"
