And it sure been a cold cold winter,
And the wind ain't been blowing from the south…
It's sure been a cold cold winter,
And the light of love is all been burned out…
It sure been a hard hard winter;
My feet been dragging 'cross the ground,
And I hope it's gonna be a long hot summer
And the light of love will be burning bright…
Yeah, and I wish I been out in California,
When the lights on all the Christmas trees went out;
But I've been burning my bell, book and candle,
And the restoration plays have all gone 'round…
It sure been a cold cold winter…
My feet been dragging 'cross the ground,
And the fields has all been brown and barren,

When the lights on all the Christmas trees went out…
But I been burning my bell, book and candle,
And the restoration plays have all gone 'round…

Sometimes I think about you baby oh, well, well,
Oh, sometimes I cry about you, Lord, and well, well, well,
Yeah, and I wrap my coat around you, woman,

Yeah, and I wrap my coat around my woman,
Baby, Lord, sometimes I wanna a-keep you warm,
and sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you…
and I sometimes I wanna burn a candle for you…
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you,
Sometimes I wanna burn a candle for you!..
This hour I wanna keep you warm, warm, warm!..
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you, Lord, and cry,
Ooh, sometimes I feels like… ooh, my, my, my…
