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
