Waylon Jennings

Tryin' To Outrun The Wind

(Troy Seals - Eddie Setser - Tom Davey)

He's a sad song singer he plays a gut-stringer
With vagabond fingers that follow his mind
To far away places he reaches for traces
And touches the faces he's long left behind.

He'll keep you from knowing where he's been or going
You'll see the distance right there in his eyes
Just short of stealing he'll take your feelings
Pull at your heart strings till they come untied.

Once was a woman who made him turn lonesome
Her memory turns over and over again
Like an old stallion who's longing for freedom
Trying to outrun the wind.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I've laughed with the sunshine cried with the rains
I've had some bad nights with the best of the blues
And I go on pretending with long haired women
I still get crazy when I think of you.

Once was a woman who made him turn lonesome
Her memory turns over and over again
Like an old stallion who's longing for freedom
Trying to outrun the wind.

He's like an old stallion who's longing for freedom
Trying to outrun the wind...

Mirror lyrics:

Trying to outrun the wind...
He's like an old stallion who's longing for freedom

Trying to outrun the wind.
Like an old stallion who's longing for freedom
Her memory turns over and over again
Once was a woman who made him turn lonesome

I still get crazy when I think of you.
And I go on pretending with long haired women
I've had some bad nights with the best of the blues
Well, I've laughed with the sunshine cried with the rains

--- Instrumental ---

Trying to outrun the wind.
Like an old stallion who's longing for freedom
Her memory turns over and over again
Once was a woman who made him turn lonesome

Pull at your heart strings till they come untied.
Just short of stealing he'll take your feelings
You'll see the distance right there in his eyes
He'll keep you from knowing where he's been or going

And touches the faces he's long left behind.
To far away places he reaches for traces
With vagabond fingers that follow his mind
He's a sad song singer he plays a gut-stringer

(Troy Seals - Eddie Setser - Tom Davey)
