Wind's Gonna Blow You Away Butch Hancock Well it’s cheek to cheek and its face to face If I told ya once, I told ya twice East is east, west is west Fire is fire an ice is ice That wind's gonna blow tomorrow Just like it blow'd today But 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 That wind's gonna blow tomorrow Just like it blow'd today But 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 But someday when your bones turn to dust That 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
