[Intro]
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa-whoa
Whoa, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa-whoa

[Verse 1]
Well, I know I don't have to be told
That this northern wind is chilly and cold
Well, I know, oh, whoa-whoa
Far from the south wind I ran
Now, I'm a lost and lonely man
Well, I know, oh, whoa-whoa

[Chorus 1]
Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Well, I know, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa-whoa

[Verse 2]
She took the sun and left me the rain
And left me the sorrow and all the pain
Well, I know, oh, whoa-whoa
She took my love and left me torn
Now, I'm lonely and forlorn
Well, I know, oh, whoa-whoa
[Chorus 2]
All of my love done left me
All of my love done left me
All of my love done left me
Well, I know, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa-whoa

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
She told me someday she'd return
If the sun should freeze or the earth should burn
Well, I know, oh, whoa-whoa
But now she's gone, and in the sky
The wind alone can hear me cry
Well, I know, oh, whoa-whoa

[Chorus 1]
Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Had a little girl but she left me
Well, I know, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa-whoa

[Outro]
Whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa
