There's a blizzard comin' on and I'm wishin' I was home<br />
<br />
For my pony's lame and he can't hardly stand<br />
<br />
Listen to that northern sigh if we don't get home we'll die<br />
<br />
But it's only seven miles to Mary Anne it's only seven miles to Mary Anne<br />
<br />
You can bet we're on her mind for it's gettin' just about suppertime<br />
<br />
Oh I know those hot biscuits're in the fryin' pan<br />
<br />
Lord my hands feel like they're froze and there's a numbness in my toes<br />
<br />
But it's only five more miles to Mary Anne it's only five more miles to Mary Anne<br />
<br />
That wind's a howlin' and it seems mighty like a woman's screams<br />
<br />
And we'd best be movin' faster if we can<br />
<br />
Dan just think about that barn with all that hay so soft and warm<br />
<br />
It's only three more miles to Mary Anne it's only three more miles to Mary Anne<br />
<br />
Dan get up your ornery cuss or you'll be the death of us<br />
<br />
I'm so weary but I'll help you if I can<br />
<br />
All right Dan perhaps it's best we'll stop just a little while and rest<br />
<br />
For it's still another mile to Mary Anne it's still another mile to Mary Anne<br />
<br />
Late that night the storm was gone and they found him there at dawn<br />
<br />
He'd have made it but he couldn't leave ol' Dan<br />
<br />
Yes they found him out there on the plains his hands were frozen to the reins<br />
<br />
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne<br />
<br />
He was just a hundred yards from Mary Anne
