1
Gulf coast highway, he worked the rails
2
He worked the rice fields with their cold dark wells
3
He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico
4
The only thing we've ever owned is this old house here by the road
5
And when he dies he says
6
He'll catch some blackbird's wing
7
And we will fly away to heaven
8
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
9
She walked through springtime when I was home
10
The days were sweet, our nights were warm
11
The seasons changed, the jobs would come
12
The flowers fade and this old house felt so alone
13
When the work took me away
14
And when she dies she says
15
She'll catch some blackbird's wing
16
And she will fly away to heaven
17
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
18
Highway 9, the jobs are gone
19
We tend our garden, we set the sun
20
This is the only place on Earth blue bonnets grow
21
And once a year they come and go
22
At this old house here by the road
23
And when we die we say
24
We'll catch some blackbird's wing
25
And we will fly away to heaven
26
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
27
Yes when we die we say
28
We'll catch some blackbird's wing
29
And we will fly away together
30
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
