Lyrics
Away out here they got a name
For wind and rain and fire
The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe,
And they call the wind Maria

Maria blows the stars around
And sends the clouds a'flyin'
Maria makes the mountains sound
Like folks were up there dying

Maria, Maria
They call the wind Maria

Before I knew Maria's name
And heard her wail and whinin'
I had a girl and she had me
And the sun was always shinin'

But then one day I left my girl
I left her far behind me
And now I'm lost, so gone and lost
Not even God can find me

Maria, Maria
They call the wind Maria

(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

(Maria, Maria)
They call the wind Maria

(Maria, Maria)
Blow my love to me
