Because Of The Wind Lyrics - Singles - Jimmie Dale Gilmore

Do you know why the trees bend at the west Texas border? 

Do you know why they bend and sway and twine? 

The trees bend because of the wind along that lonesome border 

The trees bend because of the wind, all along the line 

Have you seen my Caroleen up in Amarillo? 

Have you seen my Caroleen, the one that I call mine? 

Well, if you see my Caroleen with her hair of yellow 

If you see my Caroleen, tell her I'm doin' fine 

She is to me just like the breeze that blows from Corpus Christi 

She is to me just like the breeze that blows up from the sea 

Well, if she is like the breeze that blows from Corpus Christi 

Then I must be like the trees 'cause Caroleen blows through me 

Do you know why the trees bend at the west Texas border? 

Do you know why they bend and sway and twine? 

The trees bend because of the wind along that lonesome border 

The trees bend because of the wind, almost all the time 

The trees bend because of the wind, all along the line
