January's always bitter, but lord this one beats all The wind ain't quit for weeks now, And the drifts are ten feet tall I've been all night drivin' hefers, closer in to lower ground And I spent the mornin' thinkin', nc About the ones the wolves pulled down Charlie Barton and his family, stopped today to say goodbye Said the bank was takin' over, the last few years were just too dry And I promised that I'd visit, when they found a place in town And I spent a long time thinkin', about the ones the wolves pulled down Chorous: Lord please shine a light of hope, on those of us who fall behind And when we stumble in the snow Will you help us up while there's still time I don't mean to be complainin' lord you've always seen me through And I know you've got your reasons for each and every thing you do But tonight outside my window there's a lonesome mournful sound And I just can't keep from thinkin' About the ones the wolves pulled down Lord keep me from being the one the wolves pull down
