Song Description

It's all about memories of driving to and from Minnesota and visiting there

Lyrics

Minnesota

Music and Lyrics by Peggy Mann

It?s wintertime in Minnesota there?s snowfall in the air
And school is out for two more weeks and theirs children everywhere
There?s fudge to make and toys to buy and cocoa on the stove
Yes it?s wintertime in Minnesota the kind I used to know

We packed the car the night before we could hardly sleep
And mom and dad would wake us early we?d leave with slippers on our feet
And we?d drive through every little town and daydream all the way
Bout the people that were living there and what they did that day

We only saw my gram and grandpa on the holidays
We couldn?t wait to see their faces cause they lived so far away
Grandma made her sweet rosettes while grandpa smoked his cigarettes
Aromas I never will forget

Cause its Minnesota gram and grandpa
Both my brothers dad and mom
Memories of families come and gone

Now it?s summertime in Minnesota and we could hardly sleep
The airs so close your skin feels sticky not a cool spot on the sheet
But when morning comes and you look outside
And from the lake fog starts to rise
That when you finally realize

That it?s Minnesota gram and grandpa
Both my brothers dad and mom
Memories of families come and gone

Guitar Solo

Vacations over time to leave we all say our goodbyes (our goodbyes)
And once again we wake up early to make the long days drive
So we kiss and hug and pass the love and we are on our way
And we stare through the back car window and watch my cousins wave

Yes it?s Minnesota gram and grandpa
Both my brothers dad and mom
Memories of families come and gone (2 X) + tag
