lyrics

SNOWBOUND

For three days straight, it’s been snowing
Without a hint of ever slowing
Down and the drifts keep growing
Round our cabin door
So here we’re stuck
Our turkey without dressing
Such rotten luck
Or..maybe it’s a blessing

PHONE STOPPED RINGING OFF THE WALL
LINES ARE DOWN AND THAT’S NOT ALL
THE ROADS ARE CLOSED, WE CAN’T GET THROUGH
WE’RE SNOWBOUND

CRACKLIN’ FIRE WARMS OUR TOES
WHERE THE SUN WENT NO ONE KNOWS
WE’RE JUST A PAIR OF ESKIMOS
WE’RE SNOWBOUND

LIGHT THE CANDLES ON THE TREE
SO JOLLY OLD ST. NICK CAN SEE
A FROSTY WINDOW GLEAMING BRIGHT
AND MAKE IT TO OUR HEARTH TONIGHT

COME AND CUDDLE CLOSE TO ME
ON THIS SNOWY CHRISTMAS EVE
THERE’S NO PLACE I WOULD RATHER BE
THAN SNOWBOUND

NO NEED TO HANG THE MISTLETOE
AROUND OUR COZY BUNGALOW
WITH ALL THIS YULETIDE LOVE TO SHARE
THE SNOW CAN FALL, WHAT DO WE CARE?

COME AND CUDDLE CLOSE TO ME
ON THIS STORMY CHRISTMAS EVE
THERE’S NO PLACE I WOULD RATHER BE
THAN SNOWBOUND
NO, THERE’S NO PLACE I WOULD RATHER BE
THAN SNOWBOUND (BRRR!)
