The Blizzard Lyrics
There's a blizzard coming on, how I'm wishing I was homeFor my pony's lame, and he can't hardly stand
Listen to that norther sigh, if we don't get home we'll die
But it's only seven miles to Mary Ann's
It's only seven miles to Mary Ann's
You can bet we're on her mind, for it's nearly suppertime
And I'll bet there's hot biscuits in the pan
Lord, my hands feel like they're froze
And there's a numbness in my toes
But, it's only five more miles to Mary
It's only five more miles to Mary Ann's
That wind's howling it seems
Mighty like a woman's screams
And we'd best be moving faster if we can
Dan just think about that barn
With that hay so soft and warm
For it's only three more miles to Mary Ann's
It's only three more miles to Mary Ann's.
Dan, get up, you ornery cuss, or you'll be the death of us
I'm so weary, but I'll help you if I can
All right Dan, perhaps it's best that we stop awhile and rest
For it's still a hundred yards to Mary Ann's
It's still a hundred yards to Mary Ann's
Late that night the storm was gone
And they found him there at dawn
He'd-a-made it but he just couldn't leave old Dan
Yes, they found him there on the plains
His hands froze to the reins
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann's
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann's
