Someone's got it in for me, they're planting stories in the press
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out, when they will I can only guess
They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me
I can't help it if I'm lucky
People see me all the time and they just can't remember how to act
Their minds are filled with big ideas, images and distorted facts
And even you, yesterday, you had to ask me where it was at
I couldn't believe after all these years, you didn't know me any better than that
Sweet lady
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth
Going down the backroads heading south
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
I threw the I-Ching yesterday, it said there'd be some thunder at the well
I haven't tasted peace and quiet, for so long it seems like living hell
There's a lone soldier on the hill, watching falling raindrops pour
You'd never know it to look at him, at the final shot he won the war
After losing every battle
I woke up on the roadside, daydreaming about the way things sometimes are
Hoofbeats pounding through my head, at break-neck speed and making me see stars
You hurt the ones that I love best and cover up the truth with lies
One day you'll be in the ditch, flies buzzing around your eyes
Blood on your saddle
Idiot wind, blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe
It was gravity which pulled us in and destiny which broke us apart
You tamed the lion in my cage but it just wasn't enough to change my heart
Now everything's a little upside down, as a matter of fact the wheels have stopped
What's good is bad, what's bad is good, you'll find out when you reach the top
You're on the bottom
I noticed at the ceremony, that you left your bags behind
The driver came in after you left
He gave them all to me, and then he resigned
The priest wore black on the seventh day
And waltzed around while the building burned
You didn't trust me for a minute babe
I've never known the spring before to turn so quickly into autumn
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your jaw
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Mardi Gras
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You're an idiot, babe
It's a wonder that you still can even breathe
