Lyrics
Southwind, you picked her up in Jacksonville
And left me cold and lonesome in the rain
Southwind, you took her off to Nashville
Left me chokin’ in the smoke behind the train
And you go whoo-woo-hoo
She’s gone a gain on the Southwind
Southwind, I need a forty-dollar ticket
And about this time tomorrow I’ll be gone
Southwind, but if I had forty dollars
I would by myself a smile to carry on
And you go whoo-woo-hoo
She’s gone a gain on the Southwind
Southwind, take her fast and take her far
‘Cause that’s the way she always likes to go
Southwind, I will be waitin’ for the round trip
If you’ll bring her back and I done told her so
Don’t you go whoo-woo-hoo
She’s gone again on the Southwind
