As Long as the Wind Blows Lyrics

No one can ever hold the wind
So don't waste your time holding on to me
Just let me love then I'll be gone again
For there's one thing little girl you must see

As long as the winds blow as long as the rivers flow
As long as the train whistles scream
As long as the wild goose flies as long as the flood tides rise
There's just no way of holding me

Mister this chain gang can never hold
A man with such a wandering restless soul
Just turn your back and that's the last time you'll see
This old wandering boy from Tennessee
As long as the winds blow...

Mama it's so good to be back home
And it's not right for you and papa to be alone
But listen was that the late evening train
Well I could have sworn I heard it call my name

As long as the winds blow...
