New Hampshire Wind
by Tom Smith and Mally Smith, TomSmithMusic.com
Over the mountain, the valley below
The deep granite sunrise is waking up slow
Come feathered musicians! Let the concert begin!
With notes that take wing on the New Hampshire wind
We’re joined by the bull frogs with well tempered scale
A squirrel conductor keeps time with his tail
Here on the front porch ‘neath a roof made of tin
I’m singing along with the New Hampshire wind
My axe and the wood pile call me away
But the blessings of hard work must wait while I play
This day strikes my heart strings like an old mandolin
That’s strumming a tune with the New Hampshire wind
The trail up the mountain is a slow lazy climb
I find myself walking in three quarter time
To see from the summit where I have been
And where I am going with the New Hampshire wind
Goodnight to the mountain and the valley below
The deep purple sunset, moon coming up slow
Hear the voices of coyotes, my kith and my kin
We share the same song with the New Hampshire wind
A harmony sung with the New Hampshire wind

about
Tom Smith Boston, Massachusetts
“Folk music is still a living tradition that feeds on new songs that speak of people’s wants, needs, struggles and triumphs. Tom Smith is a man who writes songs that seem like they’ve always been there. There are very few songwriters working today that I would call folksingers, but I would call Tom Smith a true folksinger.” – Dave Palmeter, WUMB-FM Boston ... more
