Big Wind

(앨범: True, True Lovin' - 1965)

Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
Hurry kids, be quick, don't stall
Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
If we don't hurry it'll get us all

From daylight to dusk we've been a working in the dust
Picking cotton working side by side
Now I can't forget, yes, I remember yet
The way dad looked at me and he cried

Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
Hurry kids, be quick, don't stall
Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
If we don't hurry it'll get us all

So scared my lips were scaled I ran across the field
To warn my mom to storm was on its way
I knew I'd won my race when I saw my mommy's face
She turned away and I could hear her say

Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
Hurry kids, be quick, don't stall
Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
If we don't hurry it'll get us all

My dad was in the cellar and by now the sky was yellow
The wind's so strong the trees were falling
Outside I heard him crying as he lay there dying
I can still hear my daddy calling

Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
Hurry kids, be quick, don't stall
Big wind's a coming, listen to the humming
If we don't hurry it'll get us all

Big wind, big wind, big wind...
