Dolly Parton - Big Wind Lyrics

Lyrics Big Wind - Dolly Parton



Big wind
Big wind's comin'
From daylight 'til dusk
We've been a workin' in the dust
Pickin' cotton, workin' side by side
Oh, I can't forget
I still remember yet
The way my daddy looked at me and cried
"Big wind's a comin'
Listen to the hummin'
Hurry up now, 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"
I ran across the field
So scared, my lips was scaled
To warn my mom to storm was on its way
And I knew I'd won the race
When I'd see my mama's face
And the way she looked at me and said
"Big wind's a comin'
Listen to the hummin'
Hurry up now, 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"
All but dad was on the cellar
And by now the sky was yellow
The wind was blowin', trees were fallin'
And outside I heard him cryin'
And as he lay there dyin'
It seemed I could still hear him sayin'
"Big wind's a comin'
Listen to the hummin'
Hurry up now, 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"
Big wind
Big wind's comin'
