Yankee Songtext
von Jesse Harris

Yankee, suffering southern heat
But not for long
Be kind, tell me what′s on your mind
Before you're gone

Why are you flying home so soon
To the cold white northern moon?

Yankee, falling into the sea
What will you do?
Be strong, tell me is something wrong
But tell me true


Are you tired of lying in the shade
Waiting for the sun to fade?

Yankee, stay with me
I can be more than I′ve been
Someday on a gray rainy day
You'll thank me then

Are you really going soon
To the cold white northern moon?

Yankee, stuck in the southern heat
What will you do?
Be kind, tell me what's on your mind
But tell me true
