George Strait She Took The Wind From His Sails

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
Outer banks of North Carolina
Lies a sleepy harbor town
Generations of old sailors
Dropped their sails and settled down
Sam he is a young seafarer
Grandson fo a schooner man
Catherine is a sailmaker’s daughter
Today he’s gonna take her hand

[Chorus]
Calm waters
Wish them well
His ship’s come in
She’s put the wind in his sails

[Verse 2]
Catherine is a canvas painter
Paints the sun and sand and sea
Lately she’s been painting a portrait
Sammy is a dad to be

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
January brought the fever
Sam was right there by her side
Doctor told him son I’m sorry
But Catherine needs your prayers tonight
Morning light brought Sam a daughter
Fever took his better half
Sam gave Catherine to the water
As he held theit baby to his chest

[Chorus]

[Outro]
His ship came in
But she took the wind from his sails
