If you're travelin' down to the north country fair The winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to the one who lives there She was once a true love of mine If you're goin' down to snowflakes storm The rivers freeze and summers end You see if she's wearing a coat so warm To keep her from the howlin' winds Will you see for me if her hair hangs long Rolls and falls all down her breast Will you see for me the hair's hanging long That's the way I remember 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 If you're travelin' down to the north country fair The winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there She was once a true love of mine She was once a true love of mine She was once a true love of mine She was once a true love of mine She was once a true love of mine
