(Nanci Griffith)
2
Gulf coast highway, he worked the rails
3
He worked the rice fields with their cold dark wells
4
He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico
5
The only thing we've owned is this old house here by the road
6
And when he dies he says 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 she'll catch some blackbird's wing
15
And she will fly away to heaven
16
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
17
Highway 90, the jobs are gone
18
We kept our garden, we set the sun
19
This is the only place on Earth blue bonnets grow
20
And once a year they come and go
21
At this old house here by the road
22
And when we die we say we'll catch some blackbird's wing
23
And we will fly away to heaven
24
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
25
Yes when we die we say we'll catch some blackbird's wing
26
And we will fly away together
27
Come some sweet blue bonnet spring
