Lyrics Prayin' for Snow - Tom Paxton

Prayin' for Snow

It’s cloudy and cold, looks like it’s going to snow
The Highway Patrol said the roads are all slippery and slow
The radio says to stay home unless you just have to go
Well, I’m prayin' for snow, babe, I hope it snows for five days
You couldn’t leave babe, I guess you’d just have to stay
All the airports would close, and the trains couldn’t take you away
You’d have to stay
Well, I’m down to that, babe, prayin' for snow
Or a flood or a fire or the third world war
I’m down to that babe, prayin' for anything
To keep you away from the door
Let’s build a fire babe;
let’s let it burn very low
Hey, don’t ya leave now babe, give it an hour or so
Don’t ya go
It’s cloudy and cold and I’m sittin' here prayin' for snow
Well, I’m down to that, babe, prayin' for snow
Or a flood or a fire or the third world war
I’m down to that babe, prayin' for anything
To keep you away from the door
Let’s build a fire babe;
let’s let it burn very low
Very low
Don’t ya leave now babe, give it an hour or so
It’s cloudy and cold and I’m sittin' here prayin' for snow
It’s cloudy and cold and I’m sittin' here prayin' for snow
