the wind blew cold

williams iii, hank

well

i was standing on a corner at the flat out in in nashville

north caroline

waiting for a woman that was putting me down and leaving me way behind

and the wind was cold

the wind blew cold. i walked around the corner to have a cup or coffee

and i met a good buddy instead

we moved across the river for a shot of white lightning that the moose me out of my head

and the wind was cold

the wind blew cold. i can't forget

that lonesome day

nothing seemed to go my way

i got put down

by the woman i love

and the wind blew cold lord

lord

the wind blew cold. started walking and i thumbed across the hotspring mountains there and the knoxville tennessee

i hear a freight train

was a-landing before the wind blow

and no one talking to me

and the wind was cold

the wind blew cold

a couple of fellows and a lot truck moving

took me to the tennessee line

we got to talking and a-drinking over troubles

on a bottle of home made wine

and the wind was cold

the wind blew cold

i can't forget

that lonesome day

nothing seemed to go my way

i got put down

by the woman i love

and the wind blew cold lord

lord

the wind blew cold

and the wind blew cold lord

lord

the wind blew cold.
