the girl from the north country

if you're travelling in the north country fair
where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
remember me to the one who lives there
she once was a true love of mine

if you go in the snowflake storm
when the rivers freeze and the summer ends
please see she has a coat so warm
to keep her from the howling winds

please see if her hair hangs long
if it rolls and flow all down her breast
please see for me if her hair's hanging long
for thet's the way i remember her best

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

"tra l'altro credo fosse la prima volta tutti nello stesso bagno"

it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

it don't matter, anyhow

an' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

if you don't know by now

when your rooster crows at the break ok dawn

look out your window and i'll be gone

you're the reason i'm travelin' on

don't think twice, it's all right

it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe

that light i never knowed

an' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe

i'm on the dark side of the road

still i wish there was somethin' you would do or say

to try and make me change my mind and stay

we never did too much talkin' anyway

so don't think twice, it's all right

it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

like you never did before

it aint' no use in callin' out my name, gal

i can't hear you anymore

i'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin' all the way down the road

i once loved a woman, a child i'm told

i give her my heart but she wanted my soul

but don't think twice, it's all right

i'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe

where i'm bound, i can't tell

but goodbye's too good a word, gal

so i'll just say fare thee well

i ain't sayin' you treated me unkind

you could have done better but i don't mind

you just kinda wasted my precious time

but don't think twice, it's all right
