Intro.: Hey Sweet Annie Don't take it so bad You know the summer's coming soon Though the interstate is choking under salt and dirty sand And it seems the sun is hiding from the moon Your daddy told you When you were a girl The kind of things that come to those who wait So give it a rest girl Take a deep breath girl And meet me at the Bay State tonight And the snow is coming down On our New England town And it's been falling all day long What else is new What could I do I wrote a valley winter song To play for you Intro. -> And late December Can drag a man down You feel it deep in your gut Short days and afternoons spent pottering around In a dark house with the windows painted shut Remember New York Staring outside As reckless winter made its way From Staton Island to the Upper West Side Whiting out our streets along the way And the snow is coming down On our New England town And it's been falling all day long What else is new What can I do But sing this valley winter song I wrote for you
