Yonder, Stranger

There are far away places that lay over the hill Unknown for the most part, even still If you have the time I will cook you a meal If I can help you further, you know I will Yonder, stranger, is where you ought to go Though there are dangers there is much less snow Now the sky is dark and gray Your heart's sinking like a stone And there are bandits who will prey Upon those travelling alone But there are good folk down the way Who offer shelter when it's cold Make good fortune find you, babe A little further up the road On the road to your fortune you got lost for a spell And your true love abandoned you, as well And you feared like the others you would falter and fail Or collapse in the snow back on the trail Yonder, stranger, is where you ought to go Though there are dangers there is much less snow Now the sky is dark and gray Your heart's sinking like a stone And there are bandits who will prey Upon those travelling alone But there are good folk down the way Who offer shelter when it's cold Make good fortune find you, babe A little further up the road
