Talk to Me of Mendocino Lyrics
Talk to Me of Mendocino - Mary Black/Liam Clancy
Lyrics by:Kate McGarrigle
Composed by:Kate McGarrigle
I bid farewell to the state of new york
My home away from home
In the city of new york
I came of age
When first I started roaming
And the trees grow high in new york state
And they shine like gold in autumn
Never had the blues
From when once I came
In new york state
I caught 'em
Talk to me of mendocino
Closing my eyes
I hear the sea
Must I wait must I follow
Won't you say come with me
And it's on to southbend indiana
Flat out on the western plain
Rise up over the rockies
Down into california
Out to where but the rocks again
Watch the sun set on the ocean
I will watch it from the shore
Watch the sun rise over the redwoods
I'll rise with it till I rise no more
Talk to me of mendocino
Closing my eyes I hear the sea
Must I wait must I follow
Won't you say come with me
Talk to me of mendocino
Closing my eyes I hear the sea
Must I wait must I follow
Won't you say come with me
