The longest winter ever there was
Hit Boston in Ought Fifteen
Three blizzards came in just two weeks
Til the city could not be seen.
And it snows, and it snows
And the snowbank grows
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
The longest winter ever there was
Has buried the folks of Beantown
Fenway Park is deep in snow
And will home plate ever be found
Cambridge, Harvard and M.I.T.
And Concord, the home of Thoreau
Faneuil Hall and the old North Church
Buried deep in the snow.
The schools were closed and the train shut down
And snow piled up twenty feet
And it took two hours to get to work
Driving down Boylston street
Little girl, little girl, you must stay home
While your mama and daddy must go
We must earn money to pay for the heat
And our checking account is low
And it snows, and it snows
And the snowbank grows
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
