The winter wind is blowin strong

My hands've got no gloves

I wish to myself that I could see

The gal I'm thinkin of



Oh do you remember me babe

I remember you quite well

You caused me to leave old kingsport town

With the high sheriff on my trail



High sheriff on my trail boys

High sheriff on my trail

All because I'd fallen for

A curly headed dark-eyed gal



Who's a-gonna stroke your coal-black hair

An sing to your coloured skin

Who's a-gonna kiss your memphis lips

When I'm not in the wings



When I'm not in the wings babe

When I'm not in the wings

Who's a-gonna kiss your memphis mouth

When I'm not in the wings



Who's a-gonna walk you side-by-side

And tell you everythings alright

Who's a-gonna sing to you all day long

And not just in the night



Who's a-gonna walk you side-by-side

Who's a-gonna be your man

Who's a-gonna look you straight in the eye

And hold your bad-luck hand



Hold your bad-luck hand babe

Hold your bad-luck hand

Who's a-gonna hold your hard-luck hand

And who's a-gonna be your man



The winter wind is blowin strong

My hands've got no gloves

I wish to myself that I could see

The gal I'm thinkin of
