Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All these things that won't change
Come what may

For my good times are all gone
And I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if
I'm ever back this way

I may go out to Alberta
Weather's good there in the fall
Got some friends that I could
Go to working for

Still I wish you'd change your mind
If I ask you one more time
But we've been through that
A hundred times or more

If I get there
Before the snow flies
And things are going good
You could join me if I
Sent you down the fare

But if you wait until it's winter
It would do no good
For the winds sure can
Blow cold way out there

Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All these things that won't change
Come what may

For my good times are all gone
And I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if
I'm ever back this way
