Son Volt -- Windfall

Seems like yesterday but it was some twenty years ago, crossing Lake Ponchartrain on that old 24-mile Causeway bridge in a Chevy ElCamino with the stereo blaring, no better lyrics to be found then or now especially given this time of year and the bit of hope it brings - ...Switching it over to A.M. Searching for a truer sound Can't recall the call letters Steel guitar and settle down Catching an all night station Somewhere in Louisiana It sounds like 1963 But for now it sounds like heaven May the wind take your troubles away May the wind take your troubles away Both feet on the floor, two hands on the wheel May the wind take your troubles away May the wind take your troubles away May the wind take your troubles away...

  1. Windfall is one of my favorite songs that we cover/play in the band. People just stop what they are doing and listen. It's not a dance song, but it makes people pay attention. Thanks for sharing this version.
