Up North Lyrics - Wade Hayes

(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
