Urge For Going Lyrics

Written by: Joni Mitchell, performd by Crosby & Nash

When I awoke today and found the frost had perched on the town

It hovered in a frozen sky and gobbled summer down

And when the wind turns traitor cold

And shivering trees are standing naked in a row

I get the urge for going but I never seem to go

And I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

And the summertime is falling down

And winter's closing in

I had a girl in summertime with summer colored skin

And not another man in town my darling's heart could win

But when the leaves fell tremblin' down

Bully winds did rub their faces in the snow

She got the urge for goin', and I had to let her go ...

And I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

And the summertime is falling down

And winter's closing in

Now the warriors of winter give a cold triumphant shout

All that stays is dying, all that lives is getting out

See the geese in chevron flight

Flapping and a-racing off before the snow

They got the urge for going and they've got the wings to go ...

And I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown

And the summertime is falling down

And winter's closing in
