John McChord

Girl From Northern Country

Sunset follows sunset while she follows me down the Appalachians

And while I began south, I grew stubborn and southern still

And I suppose the west had lied of field and feather

But north at first I cursed and swore that would not travel she finds me there

The girl from northern country, just as Dylan said before

I will find my way up the Mississippi and between the Allegheny

Love told me I should leave and now love is the cause of stay, but stay differently for other days
