Billy Walker Blizzard Lyrics

Blizzard Lyrics

There's a blizzard comin' onhow I'm wishin' I was home



For my pony's lame and he can't hardly stand



Listen to that northern sigh if we don't get home we'll die



But it's only seven miles to Mary Anne yes it's only seven miles to Mary
Anne



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 Anne yes it's only five more miles to
Mary Anne



That wind's blowin' and it seems mighty like a woman's screams



And we'd best be movin' 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 Anne yes it's only three more miles to
Mary Anne



Dan get up your ornery cuss or you'll be the death of us



And I'm so weary but I'll help you if I can



All right Dan perhaps it's best that we'll stop awhile and rest



For it's still a hundred yards to Mary Anne yes it's still a hundred yards to
Mary Anne



Late that night the storm was gone they found him there at dawn



He'd made it but he couldn't leave ol' Dan



Yes they found him on the plains with his hands froze to the reins



He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne



He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne
