[Verse 1]
Know me by the light of a fire shinin' bright
Know me by your bed where I've lain
Know me, and you might, if just for a night
You'll know me by no other name

[Bridge]
Some girls will bring you silver
Some will bring you fine Spanish lace
Some will say "I love you"
And some will have my face

[Verse 2]
Some will bring you gold, babies to hold
I bring you only pain
You can know me, if you will, by the wind on the hill
You'll know me by no other name

[Bridge]
Some girls will die for money
Some will die as they're born
Some will swear they'd die for love
Some die every morn

[Verse 3]
I'll die alone, away from my home
Nobody knows where I came
The stone at my head will say I am dead
It knows me by no other name
It knows me by no other name
