(Alan J. Lerner/Frederick Loewe)
|
Away out here they've got a name for rain and wind and fire. The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe. They call the wind Maria.
|
Maria blows the stars around and sets the clouds a-flyin'. Maria makes the mountains sound like folks was out there dyin'.
|
Maria. (Maria). Maria. (Maria). They call the wind Maria.
|
|
Before I knew Maria's name and heard her wail and whinin', I had a gal. She had me and the sun was always shinin'.
|
But then one day I left my gal. I left her far behind me and now I'm lost, so gol' darn lost not even God can find me.
|
Maria. (Maria.) Maria. (Maria.) They call the wind Maria.
|
|
Out here they have a name for rain and wind and fire only. When you're lost and all alone, there ain't no name for lonely.
|
And I'm a lost and lonely man without a star to guide me. Maria blow my love to me. I need my gal beside me.
|
Maria. (Maria.) They call the wind Maria. Maria! Maria. (Maria.) They call the wind Maria.
