Jimmy Dean - North South East or West Lyrics

(Harlan Howard)

North, south, east or west
Where can I forget her best?
North, south, east or west
Which way should I go
Lord, I just don't know.

They say that Maine is beautiful
And so is old Vermount
But beauty makes me think of her
And that's not what I want.

I've heard that California sun
Makes living seem worthwhile
But sunshine makes me think about
The way she used to smile.

North, south, east or west
Where can I forget her best?
North, south, east or west
Which way should I go
Lord, I just don't know.

--- Instrumental ---

They tell me Pennsicola Bay
Has sand that's snowy white
But I think about your soft white skin
And yearn to hold you tight.

I've heard that northern Canada
Gets forty five below
But cold would make me think about
The love I wanted so.

North, south, east or west
Where can I forget her best?
North, south, east or west
Which way should I go
Lord, I just don't know...
