Reckon to the Wind

Reckon to the Wind
 the mornin' sun's a climbin'
 high into the sky
 windin' screamin' sounds
 makes the destination down
 down in with the tide
 pullin' side to side
 the motion makes believin'
 all the time goes by
 river's slippin' eyes
 smokin' cigarettes at nite
 recollectin' your demise
 way out west in the mornin'
 all the friends and family
 travel to a vision
 guessin' where you've gone
 in the sweeter by and by
 i know what you're doin'
 i know where ya been
 ah but you can only reckon to the wind
 you can only reckon to the wind
 a young man is your double
 maybe he wont die in trouble
 twenty dollars makes ya humble
 when ya roll across the sky
 when all is said and done
 i'll be walkin' on the run
 lookin' up and down the sky
 for your mem'ries
 close behind.
