The Urge for Going — текст песни (Mary Black)

Well I woke up today and found frost perched on the town

It hovered in a frozen sky and gobbled summer down

And when the sun turned straight and cold and shiverin

Trees are standing in a naked row

I get the urge for going and I never seem to go



I had someone in the summer time with summer coloured skin

And not another one in town my darlings heart could win

And when the leaves fell tumbling down and bully winds did rub their faces

In the snow

He got the urge for goin and I had to let him go



Chorus



Well he got the urge for going

When the meadow grasses are turnin brown

Summer time is a fallin down

Winters closing in



And the warriors of winter gave a cold triumphant shout

All that stays is dying and all that lives is getting out

You see the geese in chevron flight a flapping and a racing on before the snow

Theyve got the urge for going and theyve got the wings to go



Chorus



Ill pile the fire with kindlin and pull the blankets to my chin

Ill lock the vagrant winter out and bolt my wanderin in

Id like to call back summertime and let her stay for just another month or so

But shes got the urge for goin, and Ill have to let her go



Chorus...
