Sonny Landreth: The Natural World has Plenty to Say

World’s greatest slide player.

Lyrics:

there’s something in the air
i breathe this morning
caution in the wind
whispering warnings
about the melting ice
the rising tide
the burning forest
smoke signal in the sky
the shifting plates
under brick and steel
the ground we stand on
that’s under the drill

the natural world is talking
the natural world got
plenty to say

you can hear the story
but can you swallow the tale

and poison in the well?
about stripping the mountain
to the naked truth
about a fall from grace
from the burden of proof
about a shot in the dark
a flare on the sun
an ivory tower
a poacher’s gun
about bloody tracks
stained hands
a slick on the ocean
a line in the sand

the natural world is talkin’
the natural world got
plenty to say

  1. “World’s greatest slide player.”

    I wonder if Sonny would agree to that if Ry Cooder was in the room? ;>D

    And surely you meant to say “World’s greatest living slide player”? Nobody touches Duane. Nobody comes within arm’s length. Man… he wasn’t even 25 years old when he died.
