Dust Of Oklahoma

[Verse 1:]
Don't you Judge me if my shirt's grown wond and patched
Cause I'm much tougher than I look
It's been a hard year, the sky went dry way back
My fahter's fields went empty
Cause nothing never took.

[Chorus:]
I hate the dust of Oklahoma
The wind that carries years away
I hate the sand, my Lord knows it to be true
But that train just keeps a coming
Like all bad dreams do.

[Verse 2:]
All I can see against that scarecrow horizon
Is endless lines of telephone wire
The only thing that I can seem to keep my eyes on
Are those iron tracks that disappear into scorching sun.

[Chorus:]
I hate the dust of Oklahoma
The wind that carries years away
I hate the sand, my Lord knows it to be true
But that train just keeps a coming
Like all bad dreams do.

[Verse 3:]
My father's dreams, the weeds have overtaken
They're all burried in the ground
But I made a mpromise for, his land to Always treasure
But there's no treausure to be found.

[Chorus:]
I hate the dust of Oklahoma
The wind that carries years away
I hate the sand, my Lord knows it to be true
But that train just keeps a coming
Like all bad dreams do.
