[Billy Bragg, Wilco - Black Wind Blowing lyrics]

Black wind blowing in the cotton field, honey
There's a black wind blowing
In the cotton field, baby
There's a black wind blowing
In the cotton field
And oh how funny it makes me feel
Baby, sweet thing, darling

There's a long black cloud
Hanging in the sky, honey
There's a long black cloud
Hanging in the sky, baby
There's a long black cloud hanging in the sky
Weather's gonna break and hell's gonna fly
Baby, sweet thing, darling

Cotton's pretty thin yonder on the hill
Honey
Cotton's pretty thin yonder on the hill, baby
Cotton's pretty thin yonder on the hill
It won't clear a greenback dollar bill
Baby, sweet thing, darling

Work shade and back to the buzzard wing
Honey
Work shade and back to the buzzard wing, baby
Work shade and back to the buzzard wing
Clouds are gonna bust and cry down rain
Baby, sweet thing, darling

Black wind blowing in the cotton field, honey
There's a black wind blowing
In the cotton field, baby
There's a black wind blowing
In the cotton field
And oh how funny it makes me feel
Baby, sweet thing, darling
