Emmylou Harris Hickory Wind Lyrics

Hickory Wind Lyrics

(Gram Parsons/Bob Buchanon)

In South Carolina 
There are many tall pines 
I remember the oak tree 
That we used to climb 
But it makes me feel better 
Each time it begins 
Callin` me home 
Hickory Wind 

I started out younger 
At most everything 
All the riches and pleasures 
What else could life bring 
But now when I`m lonesome 
I always pretend 
That I`m gettin` the feel of 
Hickory Wind 

It`s a hard way to find out 
That trouble is real 
In a far away city 
With a far away feel 
But it makes me feel better 
Each time it begins 
Callin` me home 
Hickory Wind 
Keeps callin` me home 
Hickory Wind
