Track byThe Amazing Rhythm Aces
Go away, go away, you cold north wind Blowin' my muffler 'round and 'round Your white powder blows coverin' up the icy ground I'm a slippin' and a slidin' down this dead end stream Like a sheep who is lost from the fold I've been on the land and I've been on the sea I ain't never seen a night so cold Suddenly a face at the window Looks like someone I might a seen before Thought it musta been my imagination When suddenly she opened up the door "And I never expected to see you again Must a been seven years ago Now that you're here, why don't you come in Don't stand outside in the snow" She sat me down in that old rockin' chair And she threw on another lump of coal Said "what's a southern boy like you, doin' here Where the winter gets so long and cold" "My history's a short one to tell I've been travelin' all these seven years I followed the music and the money around And that's what I'm doin' up here" She said "I came up with my husband He wanted to get away from Tennessee He's up somewhere in the Rocky Mountains But it just got to cold up there for me And I never expected to see you again Then again, you just never know You better stay here until the weather clears It's to cold to be out there in the snow"
