Paint Your Wagon: They Call The Wind Maria lyrics
They call the wind Maria
Away out here they got a name
For rain and wind and fire
The rain is Tess, the fire 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 girl and she had me
And the sun was always shinin'
But then one day I left my girl
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 girl beside me
Maria, Maria
They call the wind Maria
Maria, Maria
Blow my love to me
They call the wind Maria
