The Blizzard

Harlan Howard

[Verse 1]
There's a blizzard comin' on
How I'm wishing 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

[Chorus]
But it's only seven miles to Mary Anne
It's only seven miles to Mary Anne

[Verse 2]
You can bet we're on her mind
For it's nearly Christmastime
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

[Chorus]
But it's only five more miles to Mary Anne
It's only five more miles to Mary Anne

[Verse 3]
That wind's howlin' and it seems
Mighty like a woman's screams
So we'd best be movin' faster if we can
Dan, just think about the barn
With the hay so soft and warm

[Chorus]
It's only three more miles to Mary Anne
It's only three more miles to Mary Anne

[Verse 4]
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's best
That we stop awhile and rest

[Chorus]
For it's still a hundred yards to Mary Anne
It's still a hundred yards to Mary Anne

[Verse 5]
Late that night the storm was gone
And they found him there at dawn
He had made it, but he couldn't leave ol' Dan
Yes, they found him there on the plains
His hands froze to the reins

[Chorus]
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne
