A way out here they've got a name for wind and rain and fire   The rain is Jack, the fire is Joe and they call the wind Maria   Maria flows the stars around since the clouds're flying   Maria makes the mountains sound like cold wind out there dying      Maria, Maria they call the wind Maria      Before I knew Maria's name heard her wails and whining   I had a girl and she had me and the sun was always shining   And then one day I left my girl left her far behind me   Maria blowed her love to me I need her here beside me      Maria, Maria they call the wind Maria      Out here they've got a name for rain and wind and fire only   But when you're lost and all alone there ain't no name for lonely   Now I'm a lost and lonely man without the stars to guide me   Maria blowed her love to me I need her here beside me      Maria, Maria they call the wind Maria
