[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
