Eric Church - Seminole Wind (Live At Amalie Arena, Tampa, FL / May 4, 2017) lyrics

Ever since the days of old men
Would search for wealth untold
They'd dig for silver and for gold
And leave the empty holes
Way down south in the Everglades
Where the black water rolls and
The saw grass waves
The eagles fly and the otter plays
In the land of the Seminole

So blow, blow Seminole wind
Blow like you're never gonna blow again
I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend
But, I know who you are
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
All the way up to Micanopy
Blow across the home of the Seminole
The alligator and the gar

Now progress came and took it's toll
In the name of flood control
They made their plans to drain the land
Now the Glades are goin' dry
The last time I walked in the swamp
I stood up on a cyprus stump
I listened close and heard the
Ghost of Oseola cry

So blow, blow Seminole wind
Blow like you're never gonna blow again
I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend
But, I know who you are
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
All the way up to Micanopy
Blow across the home of the Seminole
The alligator and the gar

So blow, blow Seminole wind
Blow like you're never gonna blow again
I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend
But, I know who you are
And blow, blow from the Okeechobee
All the way up to Micanopy
Blow across the home of the Seminole
The alligator and the gar
