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
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
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 wreckless winter made its way
from Staten Island to the Upper West Side
whiting out our streets along the way
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
Chorus 2
