Oklahoma Wind (Bill Anderson, Jon Randall, Carrie Underwood)
If you look hard you can find the demo on Tumblr but it's been deleted from everywhere else
I leaned upon a fencepost and watched that cloud of dust
Billow through the wheat fields behind his old blue truck
I stood there for hours and I watched that windmill spin
While all my dreams were scattered by the Oklahoma wind
I shook off the cold and crawled back into bed
I could smell his cologne on a pillow by my head
Outside I saw a robin on an ancient oak tree limb
But her song was stolen by the Oklahoma wind
Chorus:
I guess I should have seen it coming
And heard the thunder in the clouds
I tried to make him change direction
But I couldn't tie him down
Every time I think he's here to stay
he blows away again
It's like stopping the rain, trying to tame the Oklahoma wind
Someday the dust will settle but I can't wait that long
I need to find a quiet place and shelter from the storm
I know it won't be long before he comes rolling in
But I'll be gone, moving on like the Oklahoma wind
(Chorus)
Every time I think he's here to stay
he blows away again
It's like stopping the rain or trying to tame the Oklahoma wind
I can't stop the rain and I can't tame the Oklahoma wind.
