Long Winter Blues

Well the sun is shining somewhere I'm told
But these gray skies, they sure are getting old
Tired of being wet and cold and sad too
Well I've got them old long winter blues
The weather man says 6 more weeks of snow
The groundhogs can’t decide which way to go
I’m staying home and watching the news
Well I’ve got them old long winter blues
When I get dressed I wear every sweater I can
When I go outside I look like the Michelin Man
The salt’s clean eaten through my shoes
I’ve got them old long winter blues
All my friends go skiing on the weekend
But a friend who drags me skiing’s not a real friend
They say “enjoy it” but frankly, I refuse
I’ve got them old long winter blues
The weather man says 6 more weeks of snow
The groundhogs can’t decide which way to go
I’m staying home and watching the news
Well I’ve got them old long winter blues

I wish I were an autumn leaf
Covering the ground
And I wish I were a cold Nor’easter
Blowing them around
But I’m under all these layers
Long-johned and sweater-bound
And it’s a long time ‘til spring
Oh it’s a long time ‘til spring
Yes it’s a long long time ‘til spring
It’s only now November,
we’re already complaining
It’s a long time ‘til spring
I wish I were a candle
Burning in the night
And I wish I were an evergreen
All trimmed with twinkle lights
But I’m under all these layers
Out of mind and out of sight
And it’s a long time ‘til spring
It’s a long time ‘til spring
Yes it’s a long long time ‘til spring
It’s not a Christmas carol
but you can hear us sing
It’s a long time ‘til spring
Wish I were a snowflake
Floating in the the breeze
And I wish I were a blizzard
To blanket all the trees
But I’m under all these layers
So that I will not freeze
And it’s a long time ‘til spring
It’s a long time ‘til spring
Yes it’s a long long time ‘til spring
January is a new year
but it don’t mean a thing
It’s a long time ‘til spring
Wish I were a snowplow
To clear away the drifts
And I wish I were a snowbird
Fly away from all of this
But I’m under all these layers
It really is the pits
It’s a long time ‘til spring
It’s a long time ‘til spring
Yes it’s a long long time ‘til spring
February gives us all the blues,
it’s really depressing
It’s a long time ‘til spring
I wish a were a ski lift
Gliding up the slopes
And I wish I were a warm snap
To raise all of our hopes
But I’m under all these layers
By now we know the ropes
It’s a long time ‘til spring
It’s a long time ‘til spring
It’s still a long long time ‘til spring
March comes in like a lion
And out like a hornet’s sting
It’s still a long time ‘til spring
It’s a long time ‘til spring
It’s still a long long time ‘til spring
Well April should bring showers
But it’s probably still snowing
It’s still a long time ‘til spring
