Story Behind The Song

A song written to play for my kids when they were 4 and 7 that they could sing along to.

Song Description

A tale of all the cool things that happen when it is windy outside; and your feeling good, dreaming and loving life. The song features kids singing along on the chorus and a nicely contrasting jazz style solo bending the folk/children's music genre.

Lyrics

Well I was Sittin', over by the creek,
on a windy day.
The leaves were flyin' in and out of my hair,
blowin' around, without a care.

without a care, without a care
You'll never know what you might see, on a windy day, on a windy day.


I was rollin' down a big green hill,
ran into Jack and Jill.
Cool Jack was lying flat on his back,
while Jill wailed on her tenor sax.

her tenor sax, her tenor sax
You'll never know what you might see, on a windy day, on a windy day.

Instrumental ( whistle or guitar)

I was flyin' my big blue kite,
when it jetted out of site.
It almost hit, a yellow air balloon,
man my kite, could really zoom.

could really zoom, could really zoom
You'll never know what you might see, on a windy day, on a windy day.


I was walkin', barefoot in the grass,
watching a horse running fast.
How did that horse get a little white horn,
could it be, (pause) a unicorn.

A unicorn, A unicorn
You'll never know what you might see, on a windy day, on a windy day.

A windy day, a windy day -
You'll never know what you might see, on a windy day, on a windy day.
You'll never know what you might see, on a windy day.
