Wind's Gonna Blow You Away Lyrics - Streets Of Sin - Joe Ely

Well, it's cheek to cheek and it's 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
