Urge For Going - The Johnstons

I awoke today and found

The frost perched on the town

It hovered in a frozen sky

Then it gobbled summer down

When the sun turns traitor cold

And all the trees are shivering in a naked row

I get the urge for going

But I never seem to go

I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in

I had me a man in summertime

He had summer-colored skin

And not another girl in town

My darling's heart could win

But when the leaves fell on the ground

Bully winds came around

Pushed them face down in the snow

He got the urge for going

And I had to let him go

He got the urge for going

When the meadow grass was turning brown

Summertime was falling down and winter was closing in

Now the warriors of winter

They gave a cold triumphant shout

And all that stays is dying

And all that lives is gettin' out

See the geese in chevron flight

Flapping and racing on before the snow

They got the urge for going

And they got the wings so they can go

They get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in

I'll ply the fire with kindling now

I'll pull the blankets up to my chin

I'll lock the vagrant winter out and

I'll bolt my wanderings in

I'd like to call back summertime

Have her stay for just another month or so

But she's got the urge for going

So I guess she'll have to go

She gets the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

All her empire's falling down

And winter's closing in

And I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

And summertime is falling down
