[00:00.00]Cry Of The Wild Goose - Tennessee Ernie Ford
[00:08.74]Tonight I heard
[00:11.55]The wild goose cry
[00:15.54]Wingin' north
[00:17.92]In the lonely sky
[00:21.78]Tried to sleep
[00:24.59]But it ain't no use
[00:27.77]'Cause I am the brother
[00:31.89]To the old wild goose
[00:40.57]My heart knows what
[00:41.30]The wild goose knows
[00:42.30]And I must go where
[00:43.30]The wild goose goes
[00:43.99]Wild goose brother goose
[00:45.23]Which is best
[00:45.98]A wanderin' foot
[00:46.86]Or a heart at rest
[00:56.09]The cabin is warm
[00:59.59]And the snow is deep
[01:04.33]And I've got a woman
[01:06.76]She lies asleep
[01:11.50]When she wakes at tomorrow's dawn
[01:19.24]She'll find poor critter
[01:25.73]That her man is gone
[01:32.97]My heart knows what
[01:33.78]The wild goose knows
[01:34.53]And I must go where
[01:35.59]The wild goose goes
[01:36.71]Wild goose brother goose
[01:37.71]Which is best
[01:38.46]A wanderin' foot
[01:39.15]Or a heart at rest
[01:47.95]My woman was kind
[01:48.82]And true to me
[01:49.69]Thinks she loves me
[01:50.75]The mournful she
[01:51.44]She's gotta learn
[01:52.44]That it ain't no use
[01:53.69]To love the brother
[01:54.44]To the old wild goose
[01:59.49]My heart knows what
[02:00.28]The wild goose knows
[02:01.03]And I must go where
[02:02.21]The wild goose goes
[02:03.15]Wild goose brother goose
[02:04.15]Which is best
[02:05.02]A wanderin' foot
[02:06.08]Or a heart at rest
[02:15.69]Spring is comin'
[02:17.19]And the ice will break
[02:23.06]And I can't linger
[02:25.55]For a woman's sake
[02:31.92]She'll see a shadow pass overhead
[02:39.59]She'll find a feather beside my bed
[02:53.76]My heart knows what
[02:54.57]The wild goose knows
[02:55.44]And I must go where
[02:56.44]The wild goose goes
[02:57.50]Wild goose brother goose
[02:58.62]Which is best
[02:59.37]A wanderin' foot or a heart at rest
[03:06.92]Wild goose
