South Wind

(albüm: String Along - 1960)

Well, I know I don't have to be told
That the North wind is chilly and cold
Well, I know
Far from the South wind I ran
Now, I'm a lost and lonely man
Well, I know

Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Well, I know

She took the sun and left me the rain
And left me the sorrow and all of the pain
Well, I know
She took my love and left me torn
Now, I'm lonely and forlorn
Well, I know

All of my love done left me
All of my love done left me
All of my love done left me
Well, I know

She told me someday she'd return
If the sun should freeze or the Earth should burn
Well, I know
But now she's gone and in the sky
The wind alone can hear me cry
Well, I know

Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Well, I know
