Chilly winds are a blowing Across the meadows brown The snows will soon be closing All the roads that lead to town I can see the clouds are gathering And the birds are headed south Its time to gather firewood And get the blankets out Chilly winds blowing cold Across the mountains Bringing all the cold and the snow Just feeling all this cold Makes you wonder now and them Will God bring the springtime again Been a patching and a fixing All the summer through Try to keep the wind And the snows from coming through The crops are in the cellar We stored them all away I hope that they will last us Till winters Had its say Break Now the Lord He has helped us And He's surely seen us through The roughest winter that we've had Since the one in forty two Its time to start our planting And to fix up again It won't be long before we feel Old man winters chilly winds Tag last line
