Girl from the North Country Songtext

Girl from the North Country

Well, if you're travellin' in the North Country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline.
Remember me to one who it lives,
She once was a true love of mine.

If it rolls and flows all down her breast,
See for me if her hair hangs long,
That's the way I remember her best.

If you go in the snowflake storm,
When the rivers freeze and summer ends.
See she has a coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds,
Please see for me if her hair hangs long.

I'm a wonderin' if she remembers me at all
Many times I've often prayed
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.

If you're travellin' in the North Country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one, who lives there,
She once was a true love of mine.
