Bob Dylan - Girl Of The North Country Lyrics

 

If you're traveling the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

For she once was a true love of mine

 

If you go when the snowflakes storm

When the rivers freeze and summer ends

Please see if she has a coat so warm

To keep her from the howlin' winds

 

Please see if her hair hangs long

If it rolls and flows all down her breast

Please see for me if her hair's hanging long

For that's the way I remember her best

 

I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all

Many times I've often prayed

In the darkness of my night

In the brightness of my day

 

So if you're travelin' in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

She once was a true love of mine
