Lyrics

Five Kinds of Snow
© 1994 Joel Mabus
[first appeared on the Promised Land album]

Deep down in Dixie where magnolias bloom
Old man winter don't get much room.
Down in Florida or in Georgia, every other year or so
They get a little white stuff - they got the nerve to call it snow!
Well, I live up in Michigan, so I ought to know, 
Believe me when I tell you friends, there's five kinds of snow.....

Yeah, there's five kinds of snow – I'm here to tell you
There's five kinds of snow – don't let 'em sell you
Folks in the north-land are folks in the know,
Believe me when I tell you, there's five kinds of snow
Five kinds..........

Snow number one is a lot of fun -
Flakes as big as nickels shining in the sun,
People throwing snowballs, sledding down the street
Singing "White Christmas" - it sure is sweet,
But that's only one kind of snow..........
There's five kinds, you know..........

Snow number two is a nasty little number.
Those icy little pellets can really be a bummer -
Sting you, slap you, knock you off your feet - 
You chip it off your windshield, you’re gonna swear it's concrete -
and that's two kinds of snow..........
There's five kinds of snow.........

Now, the third kind of snow is a serious blow,
It'll shut down your town, it'll lock your door,
Turn off your power, shut off your phone -
Nine months later, little junior is born -
And that's three kinds of snow........
Mmm mmmm.........

Snow number four is nothin' but a bore -
You wake up in the morning and there's four inches more.
You should be in dream-land, getting your rest,
But you're shoveling the driveway, clutching your chest -
And that's four kinds of snow..........
Yeah, There's one more kind of snow..........

The last kind of snow is the crusty little piles,
Crusty little piles for miles and miles,
They're black, they’re ugly - look like rocks from the moon -
Look under your bushes - you gonna find 'em next June,
And that's five kinds of snow, that’s all there is now
Five kinds of snow.........
So bundle up the baby when the cold winds blow,
Wake me when it's over, there's five....kinds....of snow.
Oh yeah, there’s that yellow snow too…
