I've been too long with my nose in a book

I hope you sing just as good as you look

Come on over baby, I got a song for you

A little jump of something I call wintertime blues

I wanna hear those mockingbird wings

I want gravy on everything

Lovin' in the kitchen, what have we got to lose

Just a nasty case of these ol' wintertime blues

Cold as snot with a big frozen smile

Ain't foolin' nobody after a while

Time to let the cat out, I've got a real short fuse

I'm just about to blow up these ol' wintertime blues, blow a while

There's no spring

There was never any spring

Spring's a long gone thing

There won't ever be a spring no more

At least that's the way it feels when your

Skin is cracked and peeled and you've been livin' under

Sixty pounds of blanket and the snow's drifting up to your window

And you're out of firewood and the wolf is howling at your door

Three hours of day light and all of them gray

The suicide prevention group has all run away

I'm runnin' out of groceries, I ain't got no rubber shoes

Bring the bacon baby, I got the wintertime blues

I could cut a hole in the floor

Catch you a fish by a quarter to four

But I'm stuck up this mountain where I got a bird's eye view

Of couple more months of these ol' wintertime blues

And it's a one, two, my lips are turning blue

Come on over baby what have we got to lose

Just a nasty case of these ol' wintertime blues

And it's three, four, I'm stiff as Al Gore

Come on over baby what have we got to lose

Just a nasty case of these ol' wintertime blues

Well, it's the same old drill

For Punxsutawney Phil

If he sees his own shadow

I'm shootin' to kill

Come on over baby, I stand accused

There's a man going crazy up here

With the wintertime blues
