Seven Times The Wind - Seven Times The Wind lyrics

She said "Hey Mister where you going? I don't know, a good winds blowing Your mama don't like me and my friends quit showing I guess it's down to Mexico I'm going" And I have tried yeah, a thousand times To cross the T's yeah, to dot the I's And I never do and I realise Do you ever get out of this alive And I said, "Seven times the wind Oh, it can blow you down again And seven times you rise It's not enough in some people's eyes" She said, "Hey Mister, where's the star That shines on you no matter where you are? It's a long dark sky that I've seen this far Get more light from the highway tar" You can only lose so long and then you say I'm running out of other days I've lived my life to hear their praise It just don't seem to work out that way So I said, "Seven times the wind Oh, it can blow you down again And seven times you rise It's not enough in some people's eyes" Seven times the wind Oh, it can blow you down again And seven times you rise It's not enough in some people's eyes Seven times the wind Oh, it can blow you down again And seven times you rise It's not enough in some people's eyes
