Artist: Bob Dylan
Album: Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3: Rare & Unreleased, 1961-1991
- Songwriters: Bob Dylan
The winter wind is a blowin' strong
My hands have got no gloves
I wish to my soul that I could see
The gal I'm a thinking of
Don't you remember me, babe?
I remember you quite well
You caused me to leave Old Kingsport town
With a high sheriff on my trail
High sheriff on my trail, boys
High sheriff on my trail
All because I'm fallin' for
A curly headed, dark eyed gal
Who's a gonna stroke your cold black hair?
And sandy colored skin
Who's a gonna kiss your Memphis lips?
When I'm out in the wind
When I'm out in the wind, babe
When I'm out in the wind
Who's a gonna kiss your Memphis mouth?
When I'm out in the wind
Who's a gonna walk you side by side?
And tell you everything's 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 a blowin' strong
My hands have got no gloves
I wish to my soul I could see
The gal I'm a thinking of
