Rattlin’ Lyrics by Tea Leaf Green

Coffee Bean Brown Comes Alive

2009

I've been shot for trespassing
Down in New Orleans
Tangled up, I've been undone
I've been uncovered and I've run
And I'm...
Rattlin' on the wind
Looking for that whispered ship that we've been
Following for a season
Yes, I'm rattlin', oh, on the wind
I was born free, I was born proud
With my head in the clouds and my feet on the ground
I've been caught in a spider's web
By casting nets in ladies' beds
Yes, and I'm-
Rattlin' on the wind
Looking for that whispered ship that we've been
Following for a season
Yes, I'm rattlin', I'm on the wind
But I've seen the kudzu how it covers up half the south
It's covering my eyes and it's coming out my mouth
And I feel like I feel when the trees withstand the flood
'Cause I'm careful where I'm walking, don't want to step in the mud
The hitchhiker was leading me to the sweet water at the mountain's feet
And that forest porch light slapped my eyes
The door swung wide as a night owl cried
And that hitchhiker, well, he cursed his words
Disappeared just as I heard a bombshell blast, oh, it split the night
Took me down just as it blew my mind, I was a-
Rattlin' on the wind
Looking for that whispered ship that we've been
Following for a season
And I'm rattlin' on, on the wind
Oh, I was rattlin' on the wind
Looking for that whispered ship that we've been
Following seasons
And I'm rattlin', I'm on the wind
