Lyrics: Keith Godchaux, Lowell George
Music: Keith Godchaux, Lowell George
This song was co-written by Keith Godchaux and Lowell Geore, though it doesn't seem that Keith played on the Little Feat recording.
Played in 2016 by Mike Gordon with Phil Lesh & Friends.
Six feet of snow
Coming through my radio
It's raining in stilettos
From here clear down to Mexico
My hands are numb
From hanging on that steering wheel
They're frozen tight
Hope the wind don't blow me off the road tonight
Don't you know the ice and snow
Is sneaking in through my window
Don't you know how much I hate to be so cold
And so alone
I'm coming home
If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side
I'd be lying next to her
Next to her tonight
Sweet New Orleans
That's where my girl, she waits for me
Hair so long and eyes so green
She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Don't you know the ice and snow
Is sneaking through this boy's window
Don't you know how much I hate to be so cold
And so alone
I'm coming home
If it wasn't for the lines that wind side by side
I'd be lying next to her
Next to her tonight
