Because Of The Wind Lyrics

Because Of The Wind lyrics

Do you know why the trees bend

At the West Texas border?

Do you know why they bend,

And sway and twine?

The trees bend because of the wind

Along that lonesome border.

The trees bend because of the wind

All along the line.



Have you seen my Caroleen

Up in Amarillo?

Have you seen my Caroleen

The one that I call mine?

Well, if you see my Caroleen

With her hair of yellow

If you see my Caroleen

Tell her I'm doin' fine.



She is to me just like the breeze

That blows from Corpus Christi.

She is to me just like the breeze

That blows up from the sea.

Well, if she is like the breeze

That blows from Corpus Christi

Then I must be like the trees,

Cause Caroleen blows through me.



Do you know why the trees bend

At the West Texas border?

Do you know why they bend,

And sway and twine?

The trees bend because of the wind

Along that lonesome border.

The trees bend because of the wind

Almost all the time.



The trees bend because of the wind

All along the line.
