I don't have the answer. I've been listening to that album lately. A lot.
As far as I've noticed, the phrase is not used in the lyrics on this album.
I wonder if Bernie Taupin made it up. His lyrics are all sorts of cryptic. I've only noticed in adulthood that (a) Kiss lyrics are really, really filthy and (b) So many of Elton's songs, even a lot of the famous ones, are absolutely either incomprehensible or too deep and symbolic for me. Tumbleweed Connection could be the same thing. If Bernie made it up, it means something like, "like, you're out in the prairie out West, and there are tumbleweeds, and the tumbleweeds represent the [fill in psychobabble] and your inner [psychobabble] is connecting to or moving along with/like the tumbleweeds."
In addition, Bernie Taupin rarely intends to have meaning in his lyrics as he gives them to Elton John to write music to. Both disliked it when critics would often try to speculate for definition in Bernie's intentionally meaningless lyrics. "Tumbleweed Connection" has no specific meaning and was never intended to have one.
