The Way It Was In '51 (Tribute To Merle Haggard)
David Frizzel
3:35I have wandered girl, through this world And wound up so far gone I have hungered in my heart And in my mind for so long Just to hear you say, come on home If you will only say, boy come home I'll throw down this phone And I will run like the wind Like the wind, I will run I will follow my footsteps to your door Through the nights of hard rain Through the miles of burning sun To your door, my darling, I will run I will run till I'm weary and walk till I fall Then crawl as far as I can Then lay down and dream of you Then get back up and run again I'm so tired of lonely nights In motel rooms all by myself I'm on fire for the love we shared When we had nothing else If that same sweet fire still burns in you Darling, say the word and this is what I'll do And I will run like the wind Like the wind, I will run I will follow my footsteps to your door Through the nights of hard rain Through the miles of burning sun To your door, my darling, I will run I will run till I'm weary and walk till I fall Then crawl as far as I can Then lay down and dream of you Then get back up and run again Oh, I will run Run like the wind Oh, I run I run Yeah, I will run Like the wind
