South Wind

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. (repeat twice)
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. (repeat twice)
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. (repeat twice)
Well, i know.
