Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Maria, Maria, they call the wind Maria)
[Verse 2]
A way out here, they got a name for rain and wind and fire
The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe and they call the wind Maria
Maria throws the stars around and sends the clouds a-flying
Maria makes the mountains sound like folks were up there dying
[Verse 3]
(Maria, Maria) They call the wind Maria
[Verse 4]
Before i knew Maria's name and heard her wail and whining
I had a girl and she had me and the sun was always shining
But then one day I left my girl, I left her far behind me
And now I'm lost, so golly lost, not even God can find me
[Verse 5]
(Maria, Maria, they call the wind Maria)
[Verse 6]
Out here they got a name for rain, for wind and fire only
But when you're lost and all alone, there ain't no word but lonely
And I'm a lost and lonely man, without a star to guide me
Maria, blow my love to me, I need my girl beside me
[Verse 7]
(Maria, Maria, they call the wind Maria)
Maria, Maria
Blow my love to me
