Gulf Coast Highway (Album Version) - Nanci Griffith[00:00:00]
Written by:Daniel W. Flowers/Nanci Griffith/James Hooker[00:00:01]
Gulf coast highway[00:00:38]
He worked the rails[00:00:42]
He worked the rice fields[00:00:45]
With their cool dark wells[00:00:49]
He worked the oil rigs in the[00:00:53]
Gulf of Mexico[00:00:56]
The only thing we've ever owned[00:00:58]
Is this old house here by the road[00:01:02]
And when he dies he says he'll catch[00:01:08]
Some blackbird's wing[00:01:11]
Then he will fly away to heaven come[00:01:14]
Some sweet blue bonnet Spring[00:01:17]
She walked through Springtime[00:01:23]
When I was home[00:01:27]
The days were sweet[00:01:30]
The nights were warm[00:01:32]
Seasons change the jobs would[00:01:38]
Come the flowers fade[00:01:40]
This old house felt so alone[00:01:43]
When the work took me away[00:01:48]
And when she dies she says she'll[00:01:53]
Catch some blackbirds wing[00:01:55]
She will fly away to heaven come[00:01:58]
Some sweet blue bonnet Spring[00:02:02]
Highway 90[00:02:23]
The jobs are gone[00:02:27]
We tend our garden[00:02:31]
We set the sun[00:02:34]
This is the only place on earth[00:02:38]
Blue bonnets grow[00:02:42]
Once a year they come and go[00:02:44]
At this old house here by the road[00:02:47]
And when we die we say we'll[00:02:53]
Catch some blackbirds wing[00:02:55]
Then we will fly away to heaven come[00:02:58]
Some sweet blue bonnet Spring[00:03:02]
And when we die we say we'll[00:03:07]
Catch some blackbirds wing[00:03:10]
We will fly away together come[00:03:13]
Some sweet blue bonnet Spring[00:03:17]
