Paul Laurence Dunbar - Till The Wind Gets RightPaul Laurence Dunbar - Till The Wind Gets Right
Work rating: Low


OH the breeze is blowin` balmy And the sun is in a haze; There`s a cloud jest givin` coolness, To the laziest of days. There are crowds upon the lakeside, But the fish refuse to bite, So I`ll wait and go a-fishin` When the wind gets right. Now my boat tugs at her anchor, Eager now to kiss the spray, While the little waves are callin` Drowsy sailor come away, There`s a harbor for the happy, And its sheen is just in sight, But I won`t set sail to get there, Till the wind gets right. That`s my trouble, too, I reckon, I`ve been waitin` all too long, Tho` the days were always Still the wind is always wrong. An` when Gabriel blows his trumpet, In the day o` in the night, I will still be found waitin`, Till the wind gets right.
