It's after two, and it just started to rain Lord the wind is blowin' like an ol' freight train A distant thunder stirs me from my bed And all those longin' memories that I once thought was dead (Chorus) Cold lonesome wind, take me back home Back to the country where I belong Help me relive, those days again Take me back home, cold lonesome wind My dad made sure we never missed a meal He worked those hours long and hard to keep up on the bills My mother she meant everything to him And it's nights like this that really start me missin' both of them (repeat chorus) [Interlude] (repeat chorus) The years have pa**ed and we've all moved away Despite of everything that's gone, we're all doin' ok On certain lonesome stormy nights, I can still be found Searching through the memories of that little oil town (repeat chorus)
