A way out here, they've got a name
For rain and wind and fire
The rain is Tess, the fire is Joe
And they call the wind Maria

Maria blows the stars around
And sends the clouds a flying
Maria makes the mountain sound
Like folks were up there dying

Maria, Maria
They call the wind Maria

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

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

Maria, Maria

They call the wind Maria

Out here they've got a name for rain
For wind and fire only
But when you're lost and all alone
There ain't no world 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

Maria
Maria
Maria
