Dust of Oklahoma Lyrics

VRS 1
Don't you judge me
I'm church-grown, worn, and patched
I'm much tougher than I look
It's been hard here
The sky went dry way back
My father's fields went empty
Nothing ever took
HORUS 1
I hate the dust of Ok - lahoma
The wind that carries years away
I hate the sand, my Lord knows it to be true
and that rain just keeps a-coming like all bad dreams do
INTRLU 1
VRS 2
All I can see against that scarecrow horizon is
endless night and a telephone wire
The only thing that I can seem to keep my eyes on are
iron tracks that disappear into the scorching sun
HORUS 2
I hate the dust of Ok - lahoma
The wind that carries years away
I hate the sand, my Lord knows it to be true
and that rain just keeps a-coming like all bad dreams do
INTRLU 2

My father's dreams, leaves have overtaken
And they're buried in the ground
And I made a promise, these lands I'll always trea - sure
There's no treasure to be found
INL HORUS
I hate the dust of Ok - lahoma
The wind that carries years away
I hate the sand, my Lord knows it to be true
and that rain just keeps a-coming like all bad dreams do
and that day just keeps a-coming like all bad dreams do
