Southwind

1. Southwind

You picked her up in Jacksonville

And left me cold and lonesome in the rain

Southwind

You took her off to Nashville

Left me chokin' in the smoke behind the train

And you go whoooo-wooo-hoo

She's gone again on the Southwind.

2. Southwind

I need a forty-dollar ticket

And about this time tomorrow I'll be gone

Southwind

But if I had forty dollars

I would by myself a smile to carry on

And you go whoooo-wooo-hoo

She's gone again on the Southwind.

3. Southwind

Take her fast and take her far

'Cause that's the way she always likes to go

Southwind

I will be waitin' for the round trip

If you'll bring her back and I done told her so

Don't you go whoooo-wooo-hoo

She's gone again on the Southwind.
