It's after 2 and it just started to rain

Lord the wind is blownin like a old freight train

A distant thunder stir's me from my bed

And all those long and memories that I thought were dead



Cold lonesome wind take me back home

Back to the country where I belong

Help me relive those days again

Take me back home, cold lonesome wind.



My Dad made sure we never missed a meal

He worked those hours long and hard to keep up all the bills

My mother, she meant everything to him

and its nights like this that really start me missin both them.



Cold lonesome wind take me back home

Back to the country where I belong

Help me relive those days again

Take me back home, cold lonesome wind.



Instrumental



Cold lonesome wind take me back home

Back to the country where I belong

Help me relive those days again

Take me back home, cold lonesome wind.



The years have past and we all moved away

Inspite of everything thats gone we're all doin ok

But on certain lonesome stormy nights

I can still be found

Searchin through the memories of that little oil town.



Cold lonesome wind take me back home

Back to the country where I belong

Help me relive those days again

Take me back home, cold lonesome wind.

Take me back home, cold lonesome wind.
