They Call The Wind Maria lyrics

Away out here they got a name

For rain and wind and fire

The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe

And they call the wind Maria

Maria blows the stars around

And sends the clouds a’flyin’

Maria makes the mountains sound

Like folks were up there dying

Maria

Maria

They call the wind Maria

Before I knew Maria’s name

And heard her wail and whinin’

I had a gal and 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 gone and lost

Not even God can find me

Maria

Maria

They call the wind Maria

Out here they got a name for rain

For wind and fire only

But when you’re lost and all alone

There ain’t no word but 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

Blow my love to me
