Bay Of Mexico - Eric Andersen

I've been thinking 'bout a place I once knew well
Bout a girl I left across yonder bay
But I know one thing my pretty darlin'
I know I'll see you on another day
I may meet you on a mountain city
Or on the plains where the north wind blows
I may see you by the southern waters
Or by the bay of mexico
Now the days are gettin' dark and chilly
The river's cold and the meadows wrapped in snow
My heart is longing for your singin' breezes
Down where the golden rivers flow
Now you may think I'm only talkin'
You may think I'm only gonna break your heart
But I know where the grass is growin'
One true love will finally get a start
Now I think I'm headin' for greener pastures
My train is travelin' on a straighter road
I think I'm learnin' things I've never learned before
And a hundred other things I never knowed
