Yarrington Town Lyrics


(Mickie Merkens)I packed up my suitcase
Pulled down my old bedroll
And I started to wander
Far from my home
And the time it passed quickly
And the days seemed to be hours
Far from your city
And Yarrington TownWell, I wandered through the midnights
Of sea-bordered bar lights
And I wandered through the forests
As deep as the sea
But I never got lonesome
Until I'd hear a sad song
One to remind me of Yarrington TownWell, I followed a miner
To his home in the North woods
And he promised to love me
As long as I'd stay
And I even saw lightning

Touch a stone in the mine field
Could not touch the lightning
In Yarrington Town
