I heard from Frankie there's trouble at his place

On Highway 95 the police they gave me chase

I was with his sister I hadn't seen a thing

They had an APB just to bring me in


(1) Oh, I had Jenny by my side

Oh, she never told me that she'd lied


(2) If that's the way (that) our love goes

I'll take my chances with you I know

And we'll go the way the wild wind blows


I wasn't gonna stop they'd have to catch me first

And as I ran the red I heard the gunfire burst

Across three counties chasin' me for days

But Judge I didn't know that she was under age


(1) Repeat


[INSTRUMENTAL]


Well the judge he was generous and gave me a rest

Of eighteen months in the county's best

And I got a visit from Jenny yesterday

By the time I'm out everything will be OK


(1) Repeat


(2) Repeat


She gave me one look

You could see it in her eyes

And we'll go the way the wild wind blows


(3) And while I'm away dream of dreams

That what we had no one had seen

Because we go the way the wild wind blows



(3) Repeat and fade
