lyrics

When the good wind blows, tell ya something
That’s the time I dread
When the good wind blows, that’s when my baby
Blows right out of my bed, blows right out of my bed




Good sleep and good wind they ain’t friends
Gonna toss and turn in the gale til the night ends
Good sleep and good wind they ain’t friends
Ain’t no good cause to which the good wind lends

When the good wind blows, tell ya something
That’s the time I dread
When the good wind blows, that’s when my baby
Blows right out of my bed, blows right out of my bed

What I need from the good Lord is them good rains
Maybe good rain would wash away my pains
What I need from the good Lord is them good rains
Maybe good rain would wash my baby back here again

When the good wind blows I tell ya something
That’s the time I dread
When the good wind blows, that’s when my baby
Blows right out of my bed, blows right out of my bed
