Too Cold In The Winter

When i woke up this morning
 I could feel that it was cold
 I could hear the traffic
 from that Detroit street below
 mmmmm hmmmm
 i felt lonely
 when i told my mom about it
 she said please son do not go
 uh ooooh
 said there's nothing up there boy
 but concrete steel and snow
 whoaa ooo ooohh
 she said
 I've been worried
 it's too cold in the winter
 it's too cold in the winter
 lord save the sinners
 it's too cold in the winter
 when i told that girl of mine
 she said please just tell me why
 said i have a little love yet, girl
 this is how i think I'll try
 she said
 You'll be lonely
 it's too cold in the winter
 it's too cold in the winter
 lord save the sinners
 it's too cold in the winter
 heyyyyyyyy heyyyyyyy
 she told me
 think it over
 take it easy
 don't just go and throw your life away
 take it easy
 think it over
 don't forget what your momma said
 it's too cold in the winter
 it's too cold in the winter
 lord save the sinners
 it's too cold in the winter
 too cold in the winter
 too cold in the winter
 when you see those skies are grey
 and you take your blues away
 and when you see that cold wind blow
 and you got down to your soul
 too cold
