Joe Ely Wind's Gonna Blow You Away lyrics

Well, it's cheek to cheek and it's face to face
If I told you once, I told you twice
East is east and west is west
Fire is fire and ice is ice

That wind's gonna blow tomorrow
Just like it blow'd today
Someday when your bones turn to dust
That wind's gonna blow you away

In the pale moonlight, in the cold campfire light
I have danced in burnin' coals
Well, it ruined my shoes but it cured my blues
All I wanted was to soothe my soul

And the wind's gonna blow tomorrow
Just like it blow'd today
Someday when your bones turn to dust
That wind's gonna blow you away

Now mistakes are all right if you make them yourself
But they ain't worth a damn if they're not your own
You can sing the blues, you can read the news
You can dance off in the dark all alone


But that wind's gonna blow tomorrow
Just like it blow'd today
Someday when your bones turn to dust
And the wind's gonna blow you away

From the piney woods, to the great south plains
From the red river, to the Rio Grande
I have crossed some streams, I have lost some dreams
I've seen that golden circle in the sand

And that wind's gonna blow tomorrow
Just like it blow'd today
Someday when your bones turn to dust
That old wind's gonna blow you away

That wind's gonna blow tomorrow
Just like it blow'd today
Someday when your bones turn to dust
That old wind's gonna blow you away
That wind's gonna blow tomorrow
