Big Blizzard

It was in the dead of winter oh how well I can remember
That day of howling winds and blinding snow
A neighbor came and as we listened he said two small boys were missin'
And they'd surely die if left out in the cold
Papa tried to organize a searching party folks all said it would be fool-hardly
To look for them until the storm died down
Papa left me and mama cryin' and went out alone to find them
On the day the big blizzard hit our town
Next day when the storm was over the search party soon discovered
Papa's frozen body lying in the snow
They picked him up and there beneath him were the frightened hungry children
Wrapped up safe and tight in papa's overcoat
The youngsters told how papa found them how he wrapped his coat around them
How he rubbed their bodies till they felt all warm
Then he said boys lie here beneath me and if I should go to sleep
Well you just stay awake and you'll be safe here from the storm
Papa tried to organize a searching party folks all said it would be fool-hardly
To look for them until the storm died down
Papa left me and mama cryin' and saved two young boys from dyin'
On the day the big blizzard hit our town
On the day the big blizzard hit our town
