Winter Is My Favorite Time Of The Year

Winter is my favorite time of the year
Winter is my favorite time of the year
Winter turns to ice and I lose my grip
I’m knee deep in snow and I slide and slip
My face is blue and my face is wind whipped
Winter is my favorite time of the year

It’s winter time and I’m looking for the sun
It’s winter time. Where is my sun?
It’s a frozen ice ball in the sky
A million miles up. A million miles high
Too far up to melt my frozen crys
It’s Winter time. Kiss fall goodbye
It’s Winter time. Kiss fall goodbye

It’s winter time. My socks froze to my toes
Your cheeks are red. They sting and glow
I’m trying to keep warm inside my skin
The snow is deep and my coat is thin
I got cabin fever and I’m on my last bottle of gin
It is winter time now and it must be... 10 below
Look at the black river ice to flow

Stop.... because I want to look for the sun
If this is a contest. Old Man Winter Won
I got a chicken in the pot of ice cold stew
My car won’t start and my dog turned blue
My eyes glazed over and I’m all threw
The winter is cold I hope the summer aint cold too
The winter is cold I hope the summer aint cold too
