If you're traveling down to the north country fair
The winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was the true love of mine

If you're going down to snowflakes storm
Rivers freeze and summer ends
Please see if she's a coat so warm
To keep her from the howlin' winds

Will you see for me if her hair hangs long?
Rolls and flows all down her breast
Will you see for me if her hair's hanging long?
That's the way I remember her 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' in the north country fair
The winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine
She once was a true love of mine
She once was a true love of mine
She once was a true love of mine
She once was a true love of mine
