Lyrics Acquainted With The Wind - Steve Earle & The Dukes, The Dukes, Steve Earle

Acquainted With The Wind

I’m a travelin' man wherever I roam
All over this land, I’m never alone
‘Cause I’m acquainted with the wind
And me and him keep travelin' along
No shelter from the storm
No pillow for my head except for maybe my arm
But I’m sleepin' like the dead
No ceilin' but the sky and here I lie
And in the mornin' I’ll be gone
Wherever I will
Whenever I please
I’m howlin' like a gale
I’m whisperin' like a breeze
I’m acquainted with the wind
And I reckon that it’s him that’s carryin' me
I’m the ramblin' kind
No matter where I roll, everybody stands aside
Lets me rumble down the road
Ain’t got a lot of friends
But I’m acquainted with the wind
And we’re travelin' along
Wherever I will
Whenever I please
I’m howlin' like a gale
I’m whisperin' like a breeze
I’m acquainted with the wind
And I reckon that it’s him that’s carryin' me
