The Bad Wind Lyrics - Artist : Tony Joe White
He drink his last cup of coffee from the morning pot
Sun was going down He loaded some shells in a twelve gauge shotgun Got in his truck headed into town He rode eleven miles stopped at a neighbor's house Said I might be gone for a while If it's not too much trouble and you get the time Would you take care of cows He drove into town with a bad wind blowing Stopped at a bar he had frequented He looked over the room with his pale green eyes Had some shots off to kill He walked out of the bar with a band wind blowing One thing on his mind He looked into the window of a small cafe And already knew what he would find His woman of twenty years was laughing and holding hands With a man he'd never seen before He went inside sat down at the table Laid his shotgun on the floor He never said a word and they both started crying He could feel the heat in his chest He could hear the bad wind howling And he was ready to kill em all And let God take care of the rest No one will ever know why He picked up the shotgun quietly left the room The wind had settled down and was quiet as ashes Took a deep breath and just stared at the moon He felt peaceful inside headed back to his place Sometimes it's just best to ride away |
