Lyrics
Sing for me cicada
Way atop those hickory trees
I said sing for me cicada
Oh sing for me
Well the melodies whispering warm night air
Fireflies dancing everywhere
It’s a southland dixie jubilee
Barefoot tappin’ to the beat
And I said sing for me cicada
Way atop those hickory trees
I said sing for me cicada
Oh sing for me
Burnin’ pine blowin’ up some smoke
Catch my breath so I don’t choke
If you need a second, grab a seat
Take a break put up your feet
And I said sing for me cicada
Way atop those hickory trees
I said sing for me cicada
Oh sing for me
Well now sing for me cicada
Way atop those hickory trees
I said sing for me cicada
Oh sing for me
