Lyrics

Way out west beyond the setting sun
Lies a place where all that comes is windblown, windblown
 
The hardpan keeps a damn thing from growing
Shallow roots just can’t take hold windblown, windblown
 
Hotter than fever, deeper than thirst
Meaner than catclaw and drier than the dirt that’s windblown
 
The dust it gets down in your bones
Hunger sets in and eats you whole
Drought kills every dream you’ve known
And any chance of hope is windblown
 
Snakes just starve and coyotes cry
Walls of dust rain down from the sky windblown, windblown
 
You could search for water but you pray for rain
Now that’s the, the definition of insane because it’s windblown
You never had a say, it’s windblown
 
The dust it gets down in your bones
Hunger sets in and eats you whole
Drought’s kills every dream you’ve known
And any chance of hope is windblown
 
Hotter than fever, deeper than thirst
Meaner than catclaw and drier than the dirt
 
And the dust it gets down in your soul
Hunger sets in and eats you whole
Drought kills every dream you’ve known
And any chance of hope, hope is windblown
Is windblown
