Dallas Frazier - Ode to a Child of the Wind lyrics

rate me

(Dallas Frazier - Arthur Leo Owens)

My daddy was the dusty road my mama was the wind

I been told that travelin' was the nickname of my kin

My brothers are the mountains my sisters are the seas

I don't take to settlin' down and they don't take to me.

I thank you for the sunshine that kept me warm today

I thank you for the tenderness that almost made me stay

I could learn to love you until the end of time

If settlin' down was stronger than the leavin' on my mind.

My daddy was the dusty road my mama was the wind

I been told that travelin' was the nickname of my kin

My brothers are the mountains my sisters are the seas

I don't take to settlin' down and they don't take to me.

--- Instrumental ---

More than once today my heart was tempted by your touch

You would be the one if I should choose to fall in love

I don't want to leave you with promises and dreams

They would only slip away from you to fall on me.

My daddy was the dusty road my mama was the wind

I been told that travelin' was the nickname of my kin

My brothers are the mountains my sisters are the seas

I don't take to settlin' down and they don't take to me.

My daddy was the dusty road my mama was the wind

I been told that travelin' was the nickname of my kin

My brothers are the mountains my sisters are the seas

I don't take to settlin' down and they don't take to me....
