The Cry of the Wild Goose

歌詞

My heart knows what the wild goose knows And I must go where the wild goose goes Wild goose, brother goose, which is best? A wandering fool or a heart at rest? Tonight I heard the wild goose cry Hanging north in the lonely sky Tried to sleep, it wasn't no use Cause I am a brother to the old wild goose (Oh, my heart knows what the wild goose knows) (And I must go where the wild goose goes) Wild goose, brother goose, which is best? A wandering fool or a heart at rest? Woman was kind and true to me She thinks she loves me, more fool she! She's got a love that ain't no use To love a brother of the old wild goose The cabin is warm and the snow is deep And I got a woman who lies asleep She'll wake up tomorrow's dawn And find, poor critter, that her man is gone (Oh, my heart knows what the wild goose knows) (And I must go where the wild goose goes) (Wild goose, brother goose, which is best?) (A wandering fool or a heart at rest?) Let me fly, let me fly, let me fly away Spring is coming and the ice will break And I can't linger for a woman's sake She'll see a shadow pass overhead And she'll find a feather 'side her bed
