Plumb Line

Let a wind mill blow

I want to feel the wave beat hard against me

Let a wind mill blow

This dust out of my head



Let a steeple ring

I want to hear the sound that's not me thinking

Let a steeple ring

This dirt out of my bed



[Chorus]

Strap on, shake it for a hoedown

Beat down on a wooden drum

Laugh hard till hard is gone

And that old trouble run



Let a baby yell

Simple thing like a nail in a driveway

Let a baby yell

This dust out of my head



Give an old man grumble

Wave the tag and bag the coat back

Give an old man grumble

Sweep the dark away



Lay a high boot heel

Swing that skirt from knee to elbow

Lay a high boot heel

And walk away



[Chorus]



Take a rail car whine

Tuck it down behind the silver

Take a rail car whine

A song as sure as I
