Yankee Lady (LP版) - Jesse Winchester[00:00:00]

I lived with the decent folks[00:00:11]

In the hills of old Vermont[00:00:13]

Where what you do all day[00:00:19]

Depends on what you want[00:00:22]

And I took up with a woman there[00:00:26]

Though I was still a kid[00:00:31]

And I smile like the sun[00:00:36]

To think of the loving that we did[00:00:39]

She rose each morning and went to work[00:00:47]

And she kept me with her pay[00:00:50]

I was making sweet love all night[00:00:56]

And playing guitar all day[00:00:59]

And I got apple cider and homemade bread[00:01:03]

To make a man say grace[00:01:09]

And clean linens on my bed[00:01:13]

And a warm feet fire place[00:01:18]

Yankee lady so good to me[00:01:25]

Yankee lady just a memory[00:01:30]

Yankee lady you are so good to me[00:01:34]

Your memory that's enough for me[00:01:39]

An autumn walk on a country road[00:01:46]

And a million flaming trees[00:01:49]

I was feeling uneasy[00:01:53]

Cause there was winter in the breeze[00:01:58]

And she said Oh Jesse look over there[00:02:02]

The birds are southward bound[00:02:08]

Oh Jesse I'm so afraid[00:02:13]

To lose the love that we've found[00:02:16]

Yankee lady so good to me[00:02:24]

Yankee lady just a memory[00:02:28]

Yankee lady so good to me[00:02:31]

Your memory that's enough for me[00:02:37]

I don't know what called to me[00:02:54]

But I know that I had to go[00:02:57]

I left that Vermont town[00:03:02]

With a lift to Mexico[00:03:06]

And now when I see myself[00:03:08]

As a stranger by my birth[00:03:15]

The Yankee lady's memory[00:03:20]

Reminds me of my worth[00:03:24]

Yankee lady so good to me[00:03:32]

Yankee lady just a memory[00:03:36]

Yankee lady so good to me[00:03:40]

Your memory that's enough for me[00:03:45]
