lyrics
One Stiff Breeze
written by John Hiatt
CHORUS:
What's that coming on your mind, you joking?
What's that sneaking up behind, you smoking?
What's that burnin’ down the line, you stoking’?
What's that got you in a bind, you choking?
I can't find you anywhere
Stone white skin and fiery hair
Think you'd stand out in a crowd
With that laugh you laugh out loud
CHORUS
Shadows slip through shifting light
'Til the air is black with night
Endless tears and mournful sighs
Sure could use your flashlight eyes
CHORUS
All this time we've come across
All we've gained and all we've lost
Just a little pile of dust
One stiff breeze and you've got us
I love you
I love you
I love you
Recorded October 5, 2017
