Glossary - Bend with the Breeze lyrics

Run honey run as fast as you can
The wolves are out

They walk through this town with
Blood on their lips and their hands held out

And the vultures are circling above your head
Just watching it all

Waiting for you to make one mistake
So they can watch you fall

So you better find someone to love
And make sure they know you do
Because you either bend with the breeze
Or let it break you

Your Daddy had a house up in Harriman
Off the interstate

And when your Momma got sick
Fate stepped in and changed everything

Now I've seen fires and floods and car wrecks
Where no one survived

But, I ain't ever seen fear like I did
When I looked into a broken man's eyes

So you better grab a hold of something
And let it pull you through
Because you either bend with the breeze
Or let it break you

So run honey run as fast as you can
It's a mean old world

But luck honey luck is always on the side
Of a pretty girl

So hold your head up and don't you ever
Be ashamed to cry

And never forget how lucky you are
Just to be alive

So you better find someone to love
And make sure they know you do
Because you either bend with the breeze
Or let it break you

This life can be as beautiful
As you want it to
But, you got to bend with the breeze
Or it will break you
