Tish Hinojosa - Drifter's Wind

 

He blew in on a wayward gust
what you might call a drifters' wind
a six foot frame of hobo dust
a rugged life, but sifted thin

from alberta to coeur d'alane
where he met his second wife
got as far as abeliene
and he gave up the married life

(Bridge)
married life fit like a glove
kinda tight and kinda thin
whoever wrote the book of love
never heard of a drifters' wind

ridin' easy
on the lone prarie
rollin' tumbleweeds far as you can see
one lone cowboy from calgary
driftin' lonely, driftin' free

(solo)

Badly written's what he says
sadly written's what he means
whoever wrote the book of love
wrote a romance magazine

ridin' easy on the lone prarie
rollin' tumbleweeds far as you can see
one lone cowboy from calgary
driftin' lonely
but he's driftin' free

he's driftin' lonely, driftin' free
