Think I'll go out to Alberta
Weather's good there in the fall
I got some friends that I could go working for
Still I wish you'd change your mind
If I asked you one more time
But we've been through this a hundred times or more.

Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change
Come what may
If the good times are all gone
Then I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way.

If I get there before the snow flies
And if things are looking good
You could meet me if I send you down the fare
But by then it would be winter
Not too much for you to do
And those winds sure can get cold way out there.

The good times are all gone
So I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way.

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