Biography:
Michael Hurley is an American singer/guitarist, reportedly born December 20, 1941. He also plays the fiddle.
Hurley's debut album, First Songs, was recorded for Folkways Records in 1965 on the same reel-to-reel machine that taped Leadbelly's Last Sessions. He was "discovered" by blues and jazz historian Frederick Ramsey III, and subsequently championed by boyhood friend Jesse Colin Young, who released his 2nd & 3rd albums on The Youngbloods' Warner Bros.

D G C
And now I see the wind
D F Em
blowin' from Northwest
D G C
I hear them honkers again
D F Em
on their rambling quest...
D Am C Em
Over Lord's Valley I roll like a ball
D Am C Em
and in the wind I hear them call
D Am C Em
Wild goose, loose goose, I count them all
D G C
Yonder steppin' that ol' light-walkin' wolf
D F Em
hungry as al--ways
D G C
Long legs and long ears and tail
D F Em
and a long, long will
D Am C Em
I had an ol' goose and I tried to keep her
D Am C Em
and she awake and I the sleeper
D Am C Em
She flew away left me the weeper
D G C
But there ain't no chill cold wind
D F Em
blowin' through our love nest
D G C
I feel your heart beat again
D F Em
in the wil--der--ness...
D Am C Em
I had no goose and I tried to claim her
D Am C Em
It's only in the wildness, can you name her
D Am C Em
It's only in the wildness, can you tame her
