if you're travelling 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
if you go when the snowflakes storm when the rivers freeze and summer ends please see she has a coat so warm to keep her from the howling winds
please see if her hair hangs long if it rolls and flows all down her breast please see for me if her hair is hanging long that's the way i remember her best
i'm a-wondering if she remembers me at all many times i've hoped and prayed in the darkness of my night in the brightness of my day
so if you're travelling 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
