Wild Seeds He Had Sown
Well I saw an old man on the street
His guitar in his hand
His Stetson hat perched on his head
He was a one-man band
I listened as the cowboy sang
His voice was pure and clear
Most other folks went rushin by
They wouldnt tarry here
He sang out all his memories
Of friends that he had known-------------- Chorus
Times and troubles long since past
Wild seeds that he had sown
I sat in endless wonder
At tales that he did weave
His youth out in the open air
And not once did he grieve
I couldnt find a single note
Of sadness in his heart
Of longing for the days gone by
Or wanting a new start
He sang out all his memories
Of friends that he had known-------------- Chorus
Times and troubles long since past
Wild seeds that he had sown
He sang with joy that touched me
Down to my very soul
I wished that Id been beside him
As time had took its toll
The afternoon went flyin by
The sunset touched the land
I left his side with feelings
That Id always known this man
Instr.Brk
He sang out all his memories
Of friends that he had known------------- Chorus
Times and troubles long since past
Wild seeds that he had sown
Times and troubles long since past
Wild seeds that he had sown
