What to Do When the Weather is Frightful


Let It Snow!

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

It doesn't show signs of stopping,
And I brought some corn for popping;
The lights are turned way down low,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

When we finally say good night,
How I'll hate going out in the storm;
But if you really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing,
But as long as you love me so.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.


This song was written, on a hot California day in July of 1945, by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne. It' s thought of as a Christmas song even though the holiday is never mentioned.

  2. That song has always delighted me..though, other than a few years in the Boston area, I haven't lived in the snow!

  3. I have always loved this song and always wished for it to snow when I hear it around Christmas Holidays; this year it finally does.:)
    Interesting point about Christmas never being mentioned in the text.;)
    Have a great Tuesday,

  4. This is one of my favorite holiday songs...I especially love the intro verse which hardly anyone ever sings.

    "The snowman in the yard is frozen hard.
    He's a sorry sight to see.
    If he had a brain, he'd complain.
    Bet he wishes he were me."

  6. I have been humming, whistling and singing this song for some time. Ever hopeful that we will get some of the white stuff to stick for the big day. It isn't to be this year. I love the song though.

I'm glad you stopped by and I look forward to your comments. As Dr. Fraser Crane would say, "Hello, I'm listening."
