[Verse 1]
Wind's been blowing all night long
Hallelujah, sing my song
I'll be back there, wait and see
Flatlands always home to me
[Verse 2]
I've been walking in the woods all day
Where birds just cry 'cause they can't sing
There's no wind to lift their wings
They ain't got no family
[Chorus]
Take me back where I can see
Miles of dirt in front of me
Summers hot and winters mean
There ain't nothing in between
The earth can break a man
But I will take my stand
I'll climb my mountains
Out in the flatlands
[Verse 3]
Show these blood-stained hands to me
Said a fool must see them to believe
I climb my way to Tennessee
Now the only song I sing
[Chorus]
Take me back where I can see
Miles of dirt in front of me
Summers hot and winters mean
There ain't nothing in between
The earth can break a man
But I will take my stand
I'll climb my mountains
Out in the flatlands
[Bridge]
Someday you will find me lying in my yard
Coughing blood and crying, laughing at the stars
In a great big sky
In a great big sky
It's a great big
It's a great big sky
[Chorus]
Yeah, take me back where I can see
Miles of dirt in front of me
Summers hot and winters mean
There ain't nothing in between
Take me back where I can see
Miles of dirt in front of me
Summers hot and winters mean
There ain't nothing in between
The wind can break a man
To scrape him off this land
I'll climb my mountains
Out in the flatlands
[Outro]
Hallelujah, sing my song
