Like A Straw In The Wind Lyrics - Barbra Streisand

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 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 make 

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 oughta 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!
