Lyrics

When he blew into her dust bowl town
She swore he'd never get a rope around her heart
But there was a spark
Now and then there were nights on fire
But out there on that old barbed wire the wind
Kept callin' him

She cried tumbleweed, tumblin'
Blowin' cross the desert floor
Whatever you're lookin' for
You ain't gonna find it on some lonesome road
Tumbleweed, I can be everything you need and more
But I can't love what I can't hold

Bed was still warm where he'd been sleepin'
When she heard the screen door squeakin' shut
And his old truck
And even though she knows the deal
She can't help the way she feels inside

So she cries tumbleweed, tumblin'
Blowin' cross the desert floor
Whatever you're lookin' for
You ain't gonna find it on some lonesome road
Tumbleweed, I can be everything you need and more
But I can't love what I can't hold

A few weeks later he came back around like he'd never been gone
She'd had one too many nights dealin' with all the lone alone
When she heard his boots on her front porch
She met him at the door

She cried tumbleweed, tumblin'
Blowin' cross the desert floor
Whatever you're lookin' for
Well I hope you find it on some lonesome road
Tumbleweed, I can be everything you need and more
But I can't love what I can't hold
No I can't love what I can't hold
