Evangeline - Gulf Coast Highway Lyrics

Gulf coast highway he worked the rails
He worked the rice fields with their cool dark wells
He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico
The only thing we've ever owned is this old house here by the road

And when he dies he says he'll catch some blackbird's wing
And he'll fly away to heaven come some sweet bluebonnet spring

She walked through springtime when I was home
The days were sweet the nights were warm
The seasons change the jobs would come the flowers fade
And this old house felt so alone when the work took me away

And when she dies she says she'll catch some blackbird's wing
And she'll fly away to heaven come some sweet bluebonnet spring
[ mandolin ]
Highway ninety the jobs are gone we tend our garden we set the sun
This is the only place on earth
Bluebonnets grown and once a year they come and go
At this old house here by the road

And when we dies she says we'll catch some blackbird's wing
And we'll fly away to heaven come some sweet bluebonnet spring
And when we dies she says we'll catch some blackbird's wing
And we'll fly away to heaven come some sweet bluebonnet spring
