wild winds are blowing

jennie

john and sister suzie say that i've been bad

now i don't know what they're talkin' about

but our dady sure is mad

i can't understand it why they're getting so uptight

i don't think i'll sick around here

i ain't lookin' for a fight. wild winds are blowin'

rivers keep on flowin'

so i'd better get going to try to leave it all behind

wild winds are blowin'

rivers keep on flowin'

so i'd better get going to get a little peace of mind. my brother keeps on callin' 'round

to see what i intend

but i ain't never in when he calls

it's sad to lose a friend

i bought myself a ticket

but i don't wanna leave this town

and there's a lot of people right here

who don't want me around. i heared her uncle sammy

he's polishin' his gun

i don't like the look on his face

so i think i'd better run

i better get on a greyhound bus

before her folks arrive

'cause i am just a young man

and i wanta stay alive. wild winds are blowin' yeah

wild winds are blowin' yeah

wild winds are blowin' yeah

wild winds are blowin' yeah.
