Lyrics
The weather man said it's gona be a cold one today I better get my ole truck runnin and be on my way There's an ole muddy job waitin on me again Making a living with a hammer in my hand But sometimes I stop and catch myself lossed in a dream And I wonder just what I could be Chorus1 Off in the distance is those blue Tennessee hilltops Up there on Sewanee mountain there stands a cross I wish I could fly up there and forget all my troubles As free as a Tennessee hawk It's a cold wind blowin again On this ole carpenter man I wish I had a dollar for every nail I drove in And ten for every time I hit my poor hand Lord Maybe you send a little rain my way And they'd send me home for the rest of the day I could my ole guitar and make a little magic on the strings And be a star if only in my dreams Chorus2 Off in the distance there's a lonesome whistle blowin Coming down from Sherwood there's a train I wish I could ride it all the way up to Nashville And let'em hear the songs that I sing It's cold wind blowin again On this ole carpenter man It's cold wind blowin again On this ole carpenter man wrote by Mark Allen Robinson
