Wild Winds Are Blowing

WILD WINDS ARE BLOWING As recorded by Slade (From the 1969 Album BEGINNINGS) [Intro] [Verse 1] Jennie John and Sister Suzie Say that I’ve been bad Now I don’t know what they’re talkin’ about But their daddy sure is mad [Verse 2] I can’t understand it Why they’re getting so uptight I don’t think I’ll stick around here I ain’t lookin’ for a fight [Chorus] Wild winds are blowin’ Rivers keep on flowin’ So I’d better get going And try to leave it all behind Wild winds are blowin’ Rivers keep on flowin’ So I’d better get going yeh To get a little peace of mind [Interlude] [Verse 3] Her brother keeps on callin’ ’round To see what I intend But I ain’t never in when he calls It’s sad to lose a friend [Verse 4] I bought myself a ticket But I don’t wanna leave this town And there’s a lot of people right here Who don’t want me around [Chorus] Wild winds are blowin’ Rivers keep on flowin’ So I’d better get going And try to leave it all behind Wild winds are blowin’ Rivers keep on flowin’ So I’d better get going yeh To get a little peace of mind [Interlude] [Verse 5] I heared her uncle Sammy He’s a polishin’ his gun I don’t like the look on his face So I think I’d better run [Verse 6] I better get on a greyhound bus Before her folks arrive ’Cause I am just a young man And I wanna stay alive [Chorus] Wild winds are blowin’ Rivers keep on flowin’ So I’d better get going And try to leave it all behind Wild winds are blowin’ Rivers keep on flowin’ So I’d better get going yeh To get a little peace of mind [Outro] Wild winds are blowin’ yeh Wild winds are blowin’ yeh Wild winds are blowin’ yeh Wild winds are blowin’ yeh
