They Call the Wind Maria

Way out west, they got a name

For rain and wind and fire

The rain is Tess, the fire’s joe and

They call the wind Marīa

O no, Marīa blows the stars around

And sends the clouds a-flying

Marīa makes the mountain sounds

Like folks were up there dying

Marīa, They call the wind Marīa

Now before I knew Marīa's name

And heard her wail and whining

I had a girl and she had me

And the sun was always shining

O, but then one day I left my girl

I left her far behind me

And now I’m lost, I’m oh so lost

Not even God can find me

Marīa, O, Marīa, They call the wind Marīa

I hear they got a name for rain

And wind and fire only

But when you’re lost and all alone

There ain’t no words but lonely

And I’m a lost and lonely man

Without a star to guide me

Marīa, blow your love to me

I need my girl beside me

He, Marīa, O, Marīa

I’m lonely can’t you see

Marīa, O, Marīa

Please blow my love to me

Marīa, blow my love to me
