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



* Oh, I had Jenny by my side

Oh, she never told me that she'd lied



** 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



* 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



* Repeat

** Repeat



She gave me one look

You could see it in her eyes

And we'll go the way the wild wind blows



*** 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



*** Repeat and fade
