Get 4 people in the car and indiviually roll down the windows and listen for the sound source. Once you determine that; check your CV joints or U-joints depending on whether the sound originates from the front or the rear. Usually the rubberized boot that covers the housing inside the joint will lose its lubrication and or just rott off. A quick fix at any Pick Your part type place.
