00:00He lived with a decent folk in the hills of old Vermont

00:20Where what you do all day depends on what you want

00:28He met up with a woman there, though he was just a kid

00:35I smile like the sun to think of the lovin' that we did

00:42He said, Yankee Lady, you're good to me

00:47Yankee Lady, you're a memory

00:51Yankee Lady, you're good to me

00:55You're a memory that's enough for me

01:05I went to work in the morning and I kept him with my pain

01:13We were makin' love all night and playin' guitars all day

01:20He got apple cider and homemade bread to make a man say grace

01:29Clean linen on our bed and a warm, fit fireplace

01:36He said, Yankee Lady, you're good to me

01:41Yankee Lady, you're a memory

01:45Yankee Lady, you're good to me

01:49You're a memory that's enough for me

01:59Autumn walks on a country road and a million flamin' trees

02:07I was feelin' uneasy cause there was winter in the breeze

02:13And I said, oh Jesse, look over there

02:18The birds are southward bound

02:22Oh Jesse, I'm so afraid to lose the love we found

02:29He said, Yankee Lady, you're good to me

02:34Yankee Lady, you're a memory

02:38Yankee Lady, you're good to me

02:42You're a memory that's enough for me

02:52I don't know what called to him but I knew he had to go

03:00He left that Vermont town with a ride to New Mexico

03:08Now whenever he finds himself a stranger to his birth

03:15My Yankee Lady memory will remind him of his worth

03:22He'll say, Yankee Lady, you're good to me

03:27Yankee Lady, you're a memory

03:31Yankee Lady, you're good to me

03:35You're a memory that's enough for me

03:39Yankee Lady, you're good to me

03:43Yankee Lady, you're a memory

03:47Yankee Lady, you're good to me

03:51You're a memory that's enough for me
