Joe Ely - Because Of The Wind Lyrics
Do you know why the trees bendAt the west Texas border?Do you know why they bendSway and twine?The trees bend because of the windAcross that lonesome borderThe trees bend because of the windAlmost all the time.Have you seen my CarolineUp in AmarilloHave you seen my CarolineThe one that I call mineWell, if you see my CarolineWith her hair of yellowIf you see my CarolineTell her I'm doin' fine.She is to me like the breezeThat blows from Corpus ChristiShe is to me like the breezeThat blows up from the seaNow if she is like the breezeThat blows from Corpus ChristiThen I must be like the trees,Cause Caroline blows through me.Do you know why the trees bendAt the west Texas border?Do you know why they bendSway and twine?The trees bend because of the windAcross that lonesome borderThe trees bend because of the windAlmost all the time.er hide.Crawdaddy opened his pintchers wide.Lord, he opened his pintchers wide.Whistle Man, Whistle Man, wasn't he brave?A little crawdaddy tried to whoop this train.He was brave all right, brave as any man,But his judgement, Lord, wasn't worth a damn.Whistle Man, Whistle Man, blow it low,Crawdaddy ain't in this world no more.Whistle Man, Whistle Man, Whistle Man,Blow it for the crawdaddy in the promised land.Blow it for the crawdaddy in the promised land.(Train whistle) Blow it for the crawdaddy in the promised land.
