Man I tell you what Hank bout there-that dang ol meaning o'life, man. It's like this man.

You' like a butterfly flappin 'is wings

An' it gonna cause a tree fall - cause a tree fall
If-an ain't no body see it nobody don-done-e'en know it happen
Baby born into this world

Int'know neck god dang friends
Find out about em ol evil


It's like your born into this world man
It's like dust in the wind


You don even know man - don even know man - don even know man

It's like your born into this world man

It's like dust in the wind

You don even know man - don even know man - don even know man


(pause)


That's what we tell ourselves isn't it boomhauer

Like a dang ol' candle in the wind - it don matter man

Now I think therefore you are - and now I think therefore you are

You' like a butterfly flappin 'is wings

It gonna cause a tree fall - cause a tree fall
N' no body see it nobody don-done-e'en know it happen


It's like your born into this world man
It's like dust in the wind


You don even know man - don even know man - don even know man

It's like your born into this world man

It's like dust in the wind

You don even know man - don even know man - don even know man


That's what we tell ourselves


It's like your born into this world man
It's like dust in the wind


You don even know man - don even know man - don even know man
