Hickory Wind/Do Right Woman Songtext

von Flying Burrito Brothers

Buchanan-Parsons / Penn-Moman

In South Carolina there're many tall pines
I remember the oak tree that we used to climb
But now when I'm lonesome, I always pretend
That I'm headin' the field of Hickory wind.

I started out younger, had most everything
All the riches and pleasures, what else can life bring?
But it makes me feel better each time you begin
Callin' me home, Hickory wind.

It's a hard way to find out that trouble is real
In a faraway city with a faraway feel
But it makes me feel better each time you begin
Callin' me home, Hickory wind
It's callin' me home, Hickory wind.

Take me to heart and I'll always love you
And nobody else could make me do wrong
Take me for granted and I'll tag along
Makes will power weak and temptation strong.

A woman's only human, this you must understand
She's not just a play thing, she expects love just like a man.

So if you wanna do right all day woman
You gotta be a do right all night man.

They say that's it's a man's world
But you can't prove that by me
So as long as we're together, baby
You better show some respect for me.

So if you wanna do right all day woman
You gotta be a do right all night man
You gotta be a do right all night man
You gotta be a do right all night man.
