Black Wind Blowing — текст песни (Billy Bragg)

Theres a black wind blowing in the cotton field, honey

Theres a black wind blowing in the cotton field, baby

Theres a black wind blowing in the cotton field

And o how funny it makes me feel

Baby, sweet thing, darling



Theres a long black cloud hanging in the sky, honey

Theres a long black cloud hanging in the sky, baby

Theres a long black cloud hanging in the sky

Weathers gonna break and hells gonna fly

Baby, sweet thing, darling



Cottons pretty thin yonder on the hill, honey

Cottons pretty thin yonder on the hill, baby

Cottons pretty thin yonder on the hill

Wont clear a greenback dollar bill

Baby, sweet thing, darling



Work shade and back to the buzzard wing, honey

Work shade and back to the buzzard wing, baby

Work shade and back to the buzzard wing

Clouds are gonna bust and cry down rain

Baby, sweet thing darling
