Southwind Lyrics


Shannon Murray Southwind


You say I'm a warrior fighting for the causeBut most
days I feel so small, no I'm just not that strong
I feel the weight of 500 years of progress pressing
down on me
Progress that has turned the earth sour
Progress that has turned our minds sour
I feel the weight of 500 years of progress pressing
down on me
But there's a south wind blowing on in from Mexico
But there's a south wind blowing on in from Mexico
Change is in the air, revolution is
Change is in the air, revolution is
Change is in the air, revolution is on my mind
I wish I was the president so I could play God too
I wish I was a CEO so I could tell God what to do
Because generally I find the people that run this show,
Oh no they don't care about me and you
Because generally I find the people that run the people
that run this show,

Oh no they don't care about me and you
Because generally I find the dollars that run the
people that run the people that run this
show,
Oh no they don't care about me and you
So it's 500 years from wilderness to Walmart
500 years from paradise to Pillsbury
They call this progress, They call this progress
So now everything that we used to get in the forest for
free
Is wrapped in plastic and made available for a fee
They call this progress, They call this progress
So it's 500 years from wilderness to Walmart
500 years from nature to Nasdaq
They call this progress, They call this progress
But there's a south wind blowing on in from Mexico
But there's a south wind blowing on in from Mexico
Change is in the air, revolution is
Change is in the air, revolution is
Change is in the air, revolution is on my mind
