Wild Wind
Verse
[G]Down on [C]Main Street, [Am]After [D]Sundown
[G]good time [C]Charlie, and [Am]wonderin' [D]Bill
[G]thought they [C]might hold up, [Am]ole' Hoppy's [D]drive in,
[G]one got [C]away, and [Am]one never [D]will
CHORUS
[G]and that's the [D]way, it [C]goes around [D]here,
[G]i guess [D]everybody [C]knows
that's the [G]song, I been [D]singin' for [G]years
that's the [D]way the wild wind [G]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)
