The Dust Blows Forward 'n the Dust Blows Back |
There’s ole Gray with 'er dovewinged hat |
There’s ole Green with her sewing machine |
Where’s the bobbin at? |
Tote’n old grain in uh printed sack |
The dust blows forward 'n dust blows back |
And the wind blows black thru the sky |
And the smokestack blows up in suns eye |
What am I gonna die? |
Uh white flake riverboat just flew by Bubbles popped big |
'n uh lipstick Kleenex hug on uh pointed forked twig |
Reminds me of the bobby girls |
Never was my hobby girls |
Hand full uh worms and uh pole fishin' |
Cork bobbin' like uh hot red bulb |
'n uh bluejay squeaks |
His beak open an inch above uh creek |
Gone fishin' for uh week |
Well I put down my bush |
'n I took off my pants 'n felt free |
The breeze blowin' up me 'n up the canyon |
Far as I could see |
It’s night now and the moon looks like uh dandelion |
It’s black now 'n the blackbirds feedin' on rice |
'n his red wings look like diamonds 'n lice |
I could hear the mice toes scamperin' |
Gophers rumblin' in pile crater rock hole |
One red bean stuck in the bottom of uh tin bowl |
Hot coffee from uh krimpt up can |
Me 'n my girl named Bimbo Limbo Spam |
