WINDS OF YESTERDAY

Recorded by Boxcar Willie

Sometimes at night when I'm all alone,

The sounds of the day fade away;

Alone in my room with my memories,

Winds of yesterday blow on me,

I hear country music on the radio,

The way that it was a long time ago;

And the sound of Mama singin',

Comes driftin' through the trees,

When the winds of yesterday blow on me.

I see a moon so bright over cotton fields of white,

The fragrance of magnolias ride the breeze;

And that little two room school where I learned the Golden Rule,

And the winds of yesterday blow on me.

I see children at the old swimmin' hole,

And fishin' on the river with an old cane pole;

Each memory is so dear, each face is so clear,

When the winds of yesterday blow on me.

I can hear the choir sing, how their voices ring,

I remember the words to each song;

And that old preacher man once more sets my heart at ease,

When the winds of yesterday blow on me.

When the winds of yesterday blow on me.
