Like A Straw In The Wind lyrics

Like a straw in the wind
I go whirling around
Like a bird who`s just learnin` to fly
Feet are not on the ground
Drift from pillar to post
So helplessly
What wanted the most
Winds up a ghostly memory
My man is gone
And when your man is gone
Your world just falls apart
Hmm... nothing you try to do
Helps you to comfort your heart
Don`t yo` heart get all the bricks
Where your hopes come unpinned
Trouble steps in and make
You feel like a straw in the wind
Like a straw in the wind
Free and easy
That`s my style
I go whirling around
Howdy-do me?
Watch me smile
Like a bird who`s just learned to fly
Fare-the-well me after a while
Feet are not on the ground
So i gotta roam
Drift from pillar to post
Sweetenin` water
Cherry wine
So helplessly
Thank you kindly suits me fine
What i wanted the most
Winds up a ghostly memory
My man is gone
And when your man is gone
Your world just falls apart
So any place i hang my hat is home
Birds roostin` in a tree
Pick up and go
And the goin` proves
That`s how it oughta be
I pick up too
When the spirit moves me
Cross the river, run the bend
Howdy stranger?
So long friend
There is a voice in the lonesome wind
I hear a-whisperin` roam
I`m goin` where a welcome mat is,
No matter where that is...
Cause any place i hang my hat is home!
