(Tumble) In the Wind (version 1) Songtext
von Jackson C. Frank

I seem to tumble in the wind
I wait for it to begin
When i look at you
I ain't too proud to say
I once loved a girl this way

I bring trouble on my lonesome self
I see danger in each offered help
Times are hard
The money just won't come through
I would be alone if not for you


They brought me in on a flatcar
Down from old hong kong
Tried to tell me what i was doing
Was absolutely wrong
Tried to make me over
Into a man of steel
But i knew i would have to kneel

From the plains of alberta
With its wheat so wild and strong
I rolled over the Northlands
Till i came to saskatchewan
From a hardback in my satchel
I read the words quite clear
Hurry home to your loved ones now
Wintertime is near

I seem to tumble in the wind
I wait for it to begin
When i look at you
I ain't too proud to say
I once loved a girl this way
