Because Of The Wind

Joe Ely

Intro: Do you know why the trees bend at the West Texas border? Do you know why they bend and sway and twine? The trees bend because of the wind across that lonesome border The trees bend because of the wind almost all the time Have you seen my Caroline up in Amarillo? Have you seen my Caroline the one that I call mine? Well, if you see my Caroline with her hair of yellow If you see my Caroline tell her I'm doin' fine (steel guitar solo one time around) She is to me like the breeze that blows from Corpus Christi She is to me like the breeze that blows up from the sea Now if she is like the breeze that blows from Corpus Christi Then I must be like the trees 'cause Caroline blows through me Do you know why the trees bend at the West Texas border? Do you know why they bend and sway and twine? The trees bend because of the wind across that lonesome border The trees bend because of the wind almost all the time outro: ) The trees bend because of the wind almost all the time
