During our winter jams, someone generally calls out [Cold Frosty Morning.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF7rTuvqmyY) Tho I guess if you didn’t know the title, it might sound like just another fiddle tune. (That’s why fiddle tunes have titles, didn’t ya know - so folk can tell them apart! ;)) ---

Gonna go with “Wolves” by Garth Brooks. It’s not really specifically winter themed, but the narrator of the song is reflecting during the wintertime. > [@](#): > > January’s always bitter > But Lord this one beats all > The wind ain’t quit for weeks now > And the drifts are ten feet tall [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-songs-about-snow-ice-or-winter/843289.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-songs-about-snow-ice-or-winter/843289.md?page=3)
