If The Wind Blows

I left home in spring one time
Anxious for what I might find
Wound up broke in Carolina
Went to work on a tree farm

I met a girl on the planting line
She was strong and she was kind
She'd come down to Carolina
Runnin' from a memory

Sitting by the fireside
We'd talk late into the night
About the lessons of our lives
How she learned hers and I learned mine
She learned hers in a broken home
I learned mine alone

If the wind blows
You're gone, gone, gone
If the wind blows
You're gone
If the wind blows
You're gone, gone, gone
If the wind blows

Who knows what you're gonna find
When you are indeed in tryin'
Two stray dogs on a planting row
Fell in love now we can't let go
I got her and she's got me
We got love and a bag of seed
And we're together hey and we don't mind
If the foreman cuts it all down in time
Gonna move a little further on down the line
Life is short, you keep rollin'

If the wind blows
You're gone, gone, gone
If the wind blows
You're gone
