Old House Winter Blues

Cold winters morning Pipes had all froze Couldn't feel my toes or my nose Hey, let me tell ya, it was cold Ain't no lie Thought I'd die Thermometer read eight degrees outside 15 degrees in the bathroom First thing you do is try to stay calm Don't be alarmed there's water in the pond We can do the dishes and clean the laundry to Ain't got no time for them old house winter blues Ain't got no time for them old house winter blues I could still see my breath While I was making breakfast Man, it was chilly Grabbed up my coat and hat Gathered up some strength Said a little prayer and gave a lot of thanks It could be a whole lot worse My ass could be on fire Then what would we do I'd be through We'd have to call the fire department to come put me out We Ain't got no water Mmmmm, doube wammy Down at the water hole bustin up that ice Trying my hardest not to fall in and drown I'm already over my head, but still refuse to lose Ain't got no time for them old house winter blues Ain't got no time for them old house winter blues
