Joe Purdy - On the Wind lyrics

Walk on the water again Those that can't well they just have to swim In the shallowest graves may the souls float away on the wind First name was lucine and Never was one for the fancy things She wore black leather shoes over home made tattoos on the wind She saw him first in the street Brought in by the local police She said "I'll bust you out of jail if you teach me to sail on the wind" On the wind darlin' you called On the wind darlin' you called Ahooo And they stole through the night on an old motorbike on the wind Toasted champaigne and cheap cigars In the backseat of a gettaway car And they curl to the waves that their hands did make on the wind On the wind They burned that dodge in the canyon Hopped a boxcar in the Arkansas range And they rode through the cold up to New Mexico On a freight train On the wind darlin' you called On the wind darlin' you called Ahooo Ahooo Ahooo Well they loved the sunset on the canyon so they stayed Built a mud house and changed their names And they'd dance in the evenings to the coyote singing on the wind Ahooo Sometimes Billy'd join in, saying "don't ever leave me Lucine baby, 'cos I'll never find another like you. You cool me down when the world makes me angry, so don't ever leave me, I'll always be true"
