Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well I came from California,
Just a teenage drunken buck
Lookin' for a new road in my old pickup truck
Fresh out of school, and out on my own
I met a pretty girl she was travelin' alone
She took me north to her home town
Where she thought we might marry, and settle down
I wasn't ready for the freezing cold
I wasn't ready to wear no ring of gold
[Chorus]
Fly me south for the winter
I need a good change in the weather
My cold heart ain't gettin' any warmer
Fly me south
South for the winter
[Verse 2]
Well I'm lookin' for a new love
Somethin' on the other side
I'll take a little lady with a little rebel pride
A southern belle talkin' in a drawl
Walkin' in the sun with her dainty parasol
She treats a man as sweet as a peach
But in this Yankee land she's out of my reach
[Chorus]
Fly me south for the winter
I need a good change in the weather
My cold heart ain't gettin' any warmer
Fly me south
South for the winter
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Well i'll go to Alabama, i'll run through Tennessee
Into Louisiana, and across the Mississippi
Deep in the heart of the Texas pride
The Carolinas to the Georgia pines
I'll find a lady with some southern kin
Buy me a ticket and I'm gone with the wind
[Chorus]
Fly me south for the winter
I need a good change in the weather
My cold heart ain't gettin any warmer
Fly me south
South for the winter
South for the winter
South for the winter
