歌曲歌詞
Someone's got it in for me they're planting stories in the press
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out but when they will I can only guess
They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me
I can't help it if I'm lucky
People see me all the time and they just can't remember how to act
Their minds are filled with big ideas images and distorted facts
Even you yesterday you had to ask me where it was at
I couldn't believe after all these years you didn't know me better than that
Sweet lady
Idiot wind blowing every time you move your mouth
Blowing down the backroads headin' south
Idiot wind blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot babe It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
I ran into the fortune-teller who said beware of lightning that might strike
I haven't known peace and quiet for so long I can't remember what it's like
There's a lone soldier on the cross smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door
You didn't know it you didn't think it could be done in the final end he won the wars
After losin' every battle
I woke up on the roadside daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Visions of your chestnut mare shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars
You hurt the ones that I love best and cover up the truth with lies
One day you'll be in the ditch flies buzzin' around your eyes
Blood on your saddle
Idiot wind blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Idiot wind blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot babe It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
You tamed the lion in my cage but it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Now everything's a little upside down as a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
What's good is bad what's bad is good you'll find out when you reach the top
You're on the bottom
I noticed at the ceremony your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
I can't remember your face anymore your mouth has changed your eyes don't look into mine
The priest wore black on the seventh day and sat stone faced while the
Building burned
I waited for you on the running boards near the cypress trees while the springtime turned
Slowly into autumn
Idiot wind blowing like a circle around my skull
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol
Idiot wind blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot babe It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
I can't feel you anymore I can't even touch the books you've read
Every time I crawl past your door I been wishin' I was somebody else instead
Down the highway down the tracks down the road to ecstasy
I followed you beneath the stars hounded by your memory
And all your ragin' glory
I been double-crossed now for the very last time and now I'm finally free
I kissed goodbye the howling beast on the borderline which separated you from me
You'll never know the hurt I suffered nor the pain I rise above
And I'll never know the same about you your holiness or your kind of love
And it makes me feel so sorry
Idiot wind blowing through the buttons of our coats
Blowing through the letters that we wrote
Idiot wind blowing through the dust upon our shelves
We're idiots babe It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves
