Up North (Down South, Back East, Out West)

(Danny Wells/Jill Wood) In spite of the name, Independence, Kansas Didn't grow many wild roses But she was young and restless And I loved her though holding her down was hopeless I wanted her to say she couldn't live without The life I had to offer but all she could talk about Was faraway dreams, cities she'd never seen How do I find that girl when she could be Out there anywhere she just up and left She didn't leave a forwarding address Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow Which one of those four winds should I go chasing She could be in a million places I guess Up north, down south, back east, out west She could be up in the Windy City Where the world spins a little bit faster Or gettin' a tan down in Miami that might be where I'd catch her Maybe back in Virginia, her cousin lives there Out in Arizona, she'd fit in anywhere It's anyone's guess where she came to rest My one chance for happiness is Out there anywhere she just up and left She didn't leave a forwarding address Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow Which one of those four winds should I go chasing She could be in a million places I guess Up north, down south, back east, out west I'm sitting here at a four-way intersection Praying Lord won't you point me in the right direction She could be Out there anywhere she just up and left She didn't leave a forwarding address Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow Which one of those four winds should I go chasing She could be in a million places I guess Up north, down south, back east, out west Up north, down south, back east, out west
