Like a Straw in the Wind

Like a Straw in the Wind - Barbra Streisand (芭芭拉·史翠珊)

Like a straw in the wind

I go whirling around

Like a bird who's just learnin' to fly

Feet are not on the ground

Drift from pillar to post

So helplessly

What I wanted the most

Winds up a ghostly memory

My man is gone

And when your man is gone

Your world just falls apart

Hmm nothing you try to do

Helps you to comfort your heart

Don't yo' heart get all the bricks

Where your hopes come unpinned

Trouble steps in and makes

You feel like a straw in the wind

Like a straw in the wind

Free and easy

That's my style

I go whirling around

Howdy-do me

Watch me smile

Like a bird who's just learned to fly

Fare-the-well me after a while

Feet are not on the ground

So I gotta roam

Drift from pillar to post

Sweetenin' water

Cherry wine

So helplessly

Thank you kindly suits me fine

What I wanted the most

Winds up a ghostly memory

My man is gone

And when your man is gone

Your world just falls apart

So any place I hang my hat is home

Birds roostin' in a tree

Pick up and go

And the goin' proves

That's how it ought a be

I pick up too

When the spirit moves me

Cross the river run the bend

Howdy stranger

So long friend

There is a voice in the lonesome wind

I hear a-whisperin' roam

I'm goin' where a welcome mat is

No matter where that is

Cause any place I hang my hat is home is home
