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
