Eastern wind
Well my furrows are filled with corn,
i have my woman to keep me warm,
but there's one thing that i do fear,
that eastern wind is getting near;
There's a shotgun beside my bed,
this is my country, where i was born and bred,
but i am sure, as the willow will grow,
that eastern wind is going to blow,
blowing a hole in my life, eastern wind,
running away with my life, eastern wind;
there's a woman who reads the stars,
she sees warlords on the planet mars,
and she said, "boy, you'd better beware,
that restless wind is getting near,
blowing a hole in your life, eastern wind,
running away with your life, eastern wind..."
they are coming, they are coming, they are coming, look out!
in my dream, i saw a crowd,
they were burning the palace down,
i saw a mad old man, and i ran to the door,
and then that wind began to roar,
And when they come, they'll find me here,
i will not run, they will not see my fear,
and i will fight to the very end,
before that wind i will never bend,
if they're blowing a hole in my life, eastern wind,
oh running away with my life, eastern wind,
taking the plough from my hands, eastern wind,
taking every bit of my land, eastern wind...
