Plumb Line Songtext
von Kelly Joe Phelps

Let a windmill blow
I want to feel the wave beat hard against me
Let a windmill blow
This dust out of my head

Let a steeple ring
I want to hear a sound that′s not me thinking
Let a steeple ring
This dirt out of my bed

Strap on, shake it for a hoedown
Beat down on a wooden drum
Laugh hard till hard is gone
And that old trouble run


Let a baby yell
Simple thing like a nail in a driveway
Let a baby yell
This dust out of my head

Give me an old man grumble
Wave the tag and bag the coat back
Give an old man grumble
Sweep the dark away

Lay a high boot heel
Swing that skirt from knee to elbow
Lay a high boot heel
And walk away

Strap on, shake it for a hoedown
Beat down on a wooden drum
Laugh hard till hard is gone
And that old trouble run


Take a rail car whine
Tuck it down behind the silver
Take a rail car whine
A song as sure as I
