Wild Wind Lyrics

Robert Earl Keen
Wild Wind
Down on Main Street, After Sundown
good time Charlie, and wonderin' Bill
thought they might hold up, ole' Hoppy's drive in,
one got away, and one never will
and that's the way, it goes around here,
i guess everybody knows
that's the song, I been singin' for years
that's the way the wild wind blows.
Too tall Annie kept her money
In a Bible she never read
They found Lefty, her first ex-husband,
In his new pickup truck at the bottom of the riverbed
(Repeat Chorus)
Luther Martin, he ain??t got nobody
But he sells papers and buys his wine
His granddaddy owned half of Main Street
Luther??s daddy didn??t have a dime
(Repeat Chorus)
Ain??t no secret old Doc Skinner
Wrote prescr i ptions and made lots of friends
He could dance like nobody??s business
Folks around here are sure missing him
(Repeat Chorus)
