Big Wind lyrics

From daylight till dusk we've been a workin' in the dust Pickin' cotton workin' side by side Well I can't forget yes I remember yet the way my daddy looked at me and cried Big wind's a comin' listen to the hummin' hurry up son be quick don't stall You know we can't be slow take the kids and get below If we don't hurry it'll surely get us all Well I ran across the field so scared my lips was sealed To warn my mom the storm is on its way Well I knew I'd won my race when I saw my mamy's face And the way she looked at me and said Big wind's a comin'... [ el.banjo ] Oh but dad was on the cellar and by now the sky was yellow The wind was a blowin' trees were fallin' And outside I heard him cryin' and as he lay there dyin' It seemed I could still hear him callin' Son big wind's a comin'... Big wind big wind's comin'
