Girl from the North Country

[Verse 1]

If you’re travelin' in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

For she once was a true love of mine

[Verse 2]

If you go when the snowflakes storm

When the rivers freeze and summer ends

Please see if she has a coat so warm

To keep her from the howling winds

[Verse 3]

Please see if her hair hangs long

If it rolls and flows all down her breast

Please see for me if her hair's hangin' long

For that’s the way I remember her best

[Verse 4]

I’m a-wondering if she remembers me at all

Many times I’ve often prayed

In the darkness of my night

In the brightness of my day

[Verse 5]

So if you’re travelin' the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

For she once was a true love of mine
