Haul Away Snow © 2001 Stuart Markus
with new verses for the snowstorm here in NYC!!! 3-17-07

The storm that came St. Paddy's Day came on with great ferocity
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
To grownups, t'was a shovellin' pain, to kids a curiosity
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow

Way, haul away, we'll all haul together
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
Way, haul away, we'll haul for better weather
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow

A snowflake is a dainty thing until they all gang up on you
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
So better shovel early before they all freeze up on you
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
      CHORUS

Now way Upstate, they like to ski, and others like their sledding
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
But in New York we stay indoors all huddled in our bedding
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
      CHORUS

In Rochester, a foot of snow will barely get them humming
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
But here we raid the stores as if the second flood is coming
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
      CHORUS

It's difficult to shovel snow just using a shillelagh
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
I'd rather be in Maui strumming on a ukulele
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
      CHORUS

I'd rather be in Dublin town awash in fields of clover
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
I've got no way of leaving town- my driveway's been plowed over
Way, haul away, we'll haul away snow
      CHORUS
