(Danny Wells/Jill Wood)
In spite of the name, Independence, Kansas
Didn`t grow many wild roses
But she was young and restless
And I loved her though holding her down was hopeless
I wanted her to say she couldn`t live without
The life I had to offer but all she could talk about
Was faraway dreams, cities she`d never seen
How do I find that girl when she could be
Out there anywhere she just up and left
She didn`t leave a forwarding address
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
She could be in a million places I guess
Up north, down south, back east, out west
She could be up in the Windy City
Where the world spins a little bit faster
Or gettin` a tan down in Miami that might be where I`d catch her
Maybe back in Virginia, her cousin lives there
Out in Arizona, she`d fit in anywhere
It`s anyone`s guess where she came to rest
My one chance for happiness is
Out there anywhere she just up and left
She didn`t leave a forwarding address
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
She could be in a million places I guess
Up north, down south, back east, out west
I`m sitting here at a four-way intersection
Praying Lord won`t you point me in the right direction
She could be
Out there anywhere she just up and left
She didn`t leave a forwarding address
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
She could be in a million places I guess
Up north, down south, back east, out west
Up north, down south, back east, out west
