The first sound I heard was a woman's cry

The first word I learned to utter was goodbye

Forgive me if I'm wrong in what I do to you

While passin' through passin' through

Happiness for me cannot be found but yet I still search from town to town

No offence but I don't think I'll find it here with you

Goodbye babe just passin' through



Passin' through your life like a ragin' river

No woman needs or can hold the love I give her

Please understand I can't control these things I do

While passin' through passin' through



What was that did you say you thought you loved me

That's too bad girl cause if you really do

You'll just awaken with the dawn and find your love has flown

Like an old wild goose passin' through

Passin' through your life like a ragin' river...

Like a cold north wind jus a passin' through

Goodbye babe passin' through
