Reckon to the Wind - Malcolm Holcombe

the mornin' sun’s a climbin'

high into the sky

windin' screamin' sounds

makes the destination down

down in with the tide

pullin' side to side

the motion makes believin'

all the time goes by

river’s slippin' eyes

smokin' cigarettes at nite

recollectin' your demise

way out west in the mornin'

all the friends and family

travel to a vision

guessin' where you’ve gone

in the sweeter by and by

chorus

i know what you’re doin'

i know where ya been

ah but you can only reckon to the wind

you can only reckon to the wind

a young man is your double

maybe he wont die in trouble

twenty dollars makes ya humble

when ya roll across the sky

when all is said and done

i’ll be walkin' on the run

lookin' up and down the sky

for your mem’ries

close behind.

chorus
