[00:24.461] |
There's a blizzard comin' on |
[00:28.611] |
How I'm wishin' I was home |
[00:32.892] |
For my pony's lame and he can't hardly stand |
[00:41.023] |
Listen to that northern sigh |
[00:45.305] |
If we don't get home we'll die |
[00:49.420] |
But it's only seven miles to Mary Anne |
[00:57.983] |
It's only seven miles to Mary Anne |
[01:06.089] |
You can bet we're on her mind |
[01:10.270] |
For it's nearly Christmas time. |
[01:15.050] |
And I'll bet there's hot biscuits in the pan |
[01:22.713] |
Lord my hands feel like they're froze |
[01:26.945] |
And there's a numbness in my toes |
[01:31.493] |
But it's only five more miles to Mary Anne |
[01:39.507] |
It's only five more miles to Mary Anne |
[01:47.954] |
That wind's howlin' and it seems mighty like a woman's screams |
[01:56.469] |
So we'd best be movin' faster if we can |
[02:04.516] |
Dan just think about that barn |
[02:08.764] |
With that hay so soft and warm |
[02:13.629] |
For it's only three more miles to Mary Anne |
[02:21.444] |
It's only three more miles to Mary Anne |
[02:29.924] |
Dan get up your ornery cuss |
[02:34.005] |
Or you'll be the death of us |
[02:38.388] |
I'm so weary but I'll help you if I can |
[02:46.270] |
All right Dan perhaps it's best |
[02:50.650] |
That we'll just stop awhile and rest |
[02:55.132] |
For it's still a hundred yards to Mary Anne |
[03:03.536] |
It's still a hundred yards to Mary Anne |
[03:11.633] |
Late that night the storm was gone |
[03:16.167] |
And they found him there at dawn |
[03:20.497] |
He had made it but he couldn't leave ol' Dan |
[03:28.777] |
Yes they found him there on the plains |
[03:33.277] |
His hands froze to the reins |
[03:37.824] |
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne |
[03:45.889] |
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne |
