The Browns - Big Blizzard Lyrics

There's a blizzard coming on, how I'm wishing I was home
For my pony's lame and he can 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 supper time
And I'll bet there's good hot bisque's in the pan
Lord, my hands feel like there froze, there's a numbness in my toes

But, it's only five more miles to Mary Ann's
Yes, It's only five more miles to Mary Ann's

That wind's howling and it seems mighty like a woman's scream
And we'd best be moving fast if we can
Dan just think about that barn with the hay so soft and warm

But 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
Alright Dan, perhaps it is best if we stop a while and rest

For it's still a hundred yards to Mary Ann's
Yes, it's still a hundred yards to Mary Ann's

Late that night the storm was gone, yes, 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 hands froze to the reigns

He was just a hundred yards form Mary Ann's
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Ann's
