Windy Nights

Whenever the moon and stars are circling

Whenever the wind is high

All night long through the dark and wet

The man goes riding by

Late in the night when the fire's all out

Why does he gallop and gallop about?

Whenever the trees are crying out loud

And ships are tossed at sea

Ride on the highway low and loud

By at the gallop goes he

By at the gallop goes he

And then by he comes back at the gallop again

Whenever the moon and stars are circling

Whenever the wind is high

All night long through the dark and wet

The man goes riding by

Late in the night when the fire's all out

Why does he gallop and gallop about?
