Howlin Rain
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Goodbye, Ruby, watch you winding
2
Down these snake trails that roll like rain drops in the dust
3
Windy woman, blown my cover
4
I sit here all alone but I would never sing this kind of song
5
Wicked dreams
6
Down drowning streams
7
Of blood and other wild schemes
8
That play like mold for the rust
9
Swallow's wings
10
And other old and tattered things
11
The dull and fade of wedding rings
12
Now this song is one of those
13
There's fire in these hills, closer every day
14
The wind calls the hangman to my name
15
My father said the ocean would beat upon my grave
16
And that on that day I would long for my home
17
And it's family stone
18
Here I am waiting in watercolor gray
19
I'll wait for you or Jesus or any other technicolor day
20
Howling dogs at the dust cloud walls
21
Snapping at the heels of death
22
To share with them a piece of the catch
23
I long to see the Banyan trees or any other place
24
Where the waves are made of thunder
25
And the seabirds clean the blood from off my feet
26
Oh, wicked ocean made my heart a beggar
27
The crabs that ride the jet streams
28
Are picking out the eyes of my dreams
29
The fire in these hills gets closer every day
30
The wind calls the hangman to my name
31
My brother said the wild world would feed upon my skin
32
And that on that day I would long for the farm
33
And an honest simple faith
34
The majesty of insect wings
35
And the brittle of their bones
36
Reminds me of a tropic wind
37
Blowing through the skull of our home
38
Ruby, I chased your laughter with elephant wings
39
You left me for the law
40
Left me bones for the grave
41
Childish beauty, Sunday charm
42
All has made a ghost of me, spirit dead, shackled arms
43
As I hung the wind whipped your wild name
44
And pierced the heart of a fading ghost
45
For seabirds only death upon the plain
46
The blood that beats this heart is blood upon the floor
47
Ruby you lead the hangman to my door
48
My mother said a woman would be the death of me
49
And that on that day no god would hear
50
An outlaw's dying prayer
