Way out here they have a name
|
For wind and rain and fire
|
The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe,
|
And they call the wind Miriah
|
|
Miriah blows the stars around,
|
Sets the clouds a'flyin'
|
Miriah makes the mountain sound
|
Like folks was up there dyin'
|
|
Miriah, Miriah
|
They call the wind Miriah.
|
|
Before I knew Miriah's name
|
And heard her wail and whinin'
|
I had a gal and she had me
|
And the sun was always shinin'
|
|
Then one day I left my gal,
|
I left her far behind me
|
And now I'm lost,
|
So gol-durned lost
|
Not even God can find me
|
|
Miriah, Miriah
|
They call the wind Miriah.
|
|
Out here they have a name
|
For rain wind and fire only
|
When you're lost and all alone
|
There ain't no name for lonely
|
|
I'm a lost and lonely man
|
Without a star to guide me
|
Miriah, blow my love to me,
|
I need my gal beside me
|
|
Miriah, Miriah
|
They call the wind Miriah.
|
|
Mairiah, Miriah
|
They call the wind Miriah.
