Lyrics

As long as the wind blows
I'll be chasin' after it
Don't know what I'm runnin' for
But I ain't found a reason to quit
And as long as the birds fly
I'll always wish that I had wings
To carry me away from the pain
That every new day brings
'Cause I can't seem to sit still
Always lookin' for a thrill
Just wanna see the other side of every hill
If I could be content
With the ground on which I stand
I'd buy a hundred acres of prairie land
Well I still ain't found the one
And I'm startin' to wonder if the one
Is wonderin' about me
Or maybe she's just like me
Wanderin' aimlessly
Chasin' after the breeze
Well maybe our jumbled paths will cross
Like a railroad and a street
Or maybe that train is long gone
And I'm left here on my feet
'Cause I can't seem to sit still
Always lookin' for a thrill
Just wanna see the other side of every hill
If I could be content
With the ground on which I stand
I'd buy a hundred acres of prairie land
And if the girl I once began to know
Ever changes her mind
I'd bring my run to a walk
And walk with her
And leave the rest behind
'Cause I can't seem to sit still
Always lookin' for a thrill
Just wanna see the other side of every hill
If I could be content
With the ground on which I stand
Oh oh
I'd buy a hundred acres of prairie land
Yes, I'd buy a hundred acres of Tallgrass prairie land
