[Verse 1]

Cold-cocked in Potter County

Knocked out until they found me

On the pavement blood pooled all around

I got laid down like a rug

Man I don't know who it was

Must've just slipped off without a sound

Guess I'll go on back to Rumor's

Maybe some late bloomer

Saw me leavin', as they were comin' in

I'm smellin' like a feedlot

I know my eyes are bloodshot

But go on, you can tell me again

[Chorus]

It just might've been the wind

It just might've been the gin

It just might've been a cyclone siren

Cryin' on North Julian

[Verse 2]

Walking home in the rain

I see a trucker hydroplane

Layin' on his big rig horn

I could go jump in his way

And this could all just end today

I pray to God I will not be reborn

So what if I'm as empty

As the meetings mama sent me to

And the days when I tried to make a change

I'll never shake it off

I'll never lose the cough

I wonder what the hell got in my veins

[Chorus]

It just might've been the wind

It just might've been the gin

It just might've been a cyclone siren

Cryin' on North Julian

It just might've been the wind

(Might have been the wind)

It just might've been the gin

(Might have been the gin)

It just might've been a cyclone siren

Cryin' on North Julian

[Outro]

Cold-cocked in Potter County

Knocked out until they found me

On the pavement blood pooled all around

I got laid down like a rug

I don't know who it was

Must've just slipped off without a sound
