WENDELL GEE
That's when Wendell Gee takes a tug
Upon the string that held the line of trees
Behind the house he lived in
He was reared to give respect
But somewhere down the line he chose
To whistle as the wind blows
Whistle as the wind blows, with me
{same as before} He had a dream one night That the tree had lost its middle So he built a trunk of chicken wire To try to hold it up But the wire, the wire turned to lizard skin And when he climbed inside
There wasn't even time to say
Goodbye to Wendell Gee
So whistle as the wind blows C G C (second time through, play F) Whistle as the wind blows, with me
