lyrics

Once met a woman from the South,
And her eyes were very kind,
Once met a woman from the South,
Now she’s a real good friend of mine,

She runs a market stall on Norman Road,
Where she sells her books and rhymes,
She’s getting rid of all her antique clothes,
Says “Come and Buy!, Come and Buy!”

I met a young man from the South,
He was wearing a suit and tie,
I met a young man from the South,
Said “How d’you do?” as he passed by,

I met a young girl fixing a bike,
In her shop in the Old Town,
I met a young girl fixing a bike,
She’s gonna ride it all around,


So tell me, tell me, if you like,
About these people from the South,
They’re always friendly, always polite,
They’re gonna to turn this world around,
They’re gonna to turn this world around.


Once met a woman from the South,
And her eyes were very kind,
Once met a woman from the South,
Reminded me of you one time,


‘Cause lately, lately, I’ve been thinking of you,
And that takes a fool who’s very wise,
Lately, lately, no mater what I do,
Can’t seem to get you off my mind,
Can’t seem to get you off my mind.


You were a woman from the South,
But you left it all behind,
Gone to the city to seek your gold,
I hope the Hand of Fate’s been kind,
I hope the Hand of Fate’s been kind.
