Seminole Wind

Ever since the days of old Men would search for wealth untold They dig for silver and for gold And they leave the empty holes Way down south, in the Everglades Where the blackwater rolls and the saw grass sways Eagles fly, and the otters play In the land of the Seminole So blow, blow, Seminole wind Blow like you're never gonna blow again I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend But I know who you are And blow, blow from the Okeechobee All the way up to Micanopy Blow across the home of the Seminole The alligators and the gar Progress came and took its toll In the name of flood control They made their plans, and they drained the land And now the Glades are going dry Last time I walked in the swamp I sat upon a cypress stump I listened close, and I heard the ghost Of Osceola cry So blow, blow, Seminole wind Blow like you're never gonna blow again I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend 'Cause I know who you are And blow, blow from the Okeechobee All the way up to Micanopy Blow across the home of the Seminole The alligator and the gar So blow, blow, Seminole wind Blow like you're never gonna blow again I'm callin' to you like a long-lost friend But I know who you are And blow, blow from the Okeechobee All the way up to Micanopy Blow across the home of the Seminole The alligators and the gar Oh, Seminole wind Seminole wind Seminole wind Oh, Seminole wind, oh Seminole wind
