Frank Sinatra – Let it snow

“Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!”, also known as simply “Let It Snow”, is a song written by lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne in July 1945 in Hollywood, California, during a heat wave as Cahn and Styne imagined cooler conditions. The song was first recorded that fall by Vaughn Monroe, was released just after Thanksgiving, and became a hit by Christmas.

About The Song

Despite the lyrics making no mention of any holiday, the song has come to be regarded as a Christmas song worldwide due to its winter theme, being played on radio stations during the Christmas and holiday season, and having often been covered by various artists on Christmas-themed albums. In the Southern Hemisphere, it can be played during the winter months of June, July, and August; and in New Zealand, some play it at Matariki.

American singer Dean Martin released a version of the song in 1959, as part of his album A Winter Romance, and a re-recorded version in 1966, as part of The Dean Martin Christmas Album. The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time in 2018.

American singer Jessica Simpson released a version of the song in 2004, as part of her album Rejoyce: The Christmas Album. Her version was produced by Billy Mann. The song has a music video. Simpson’s version reached No. 20 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.

Lyric

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

Oh the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

Since we’ve no place to go

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

It doesn’t show signs of stopping

And I brought some corn for popping

The lights are turned down low

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight

How I’ll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home I’ll be warm

The fire is slowly dying

And my dear we’re still goodbying

As long as you love me so

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

He doesn’t care if it’s in below

He’s sitting by the fires gloosy glow
He don’t care about the cold
And the winds that blow
He just says let it snow
Let it snow let it snow

Let it snow
Oooooh wee goes the storm

Why should he worry
When he’s nice and warm

His gal by his side
And the lights turned low
He just says let it snow
Let it snow let it snow
I don’t care

The weather outside is frightful

But that fire is mmm-delightful

Since we’ve no place to go

Let it snow let it snow let it snow

It doesn’t show signs of stopping

And I’ve brought lots of corn for popping

The lights are way down low

So let it snow let it snow let it snow

When we finally say goodnight

How I’ll hate going out in a storm

But if you’ll only hold me tight

All the way home I’ll be warm

The fire is slowly dying

And my dear we’re still goodbying

Long as you love me so

Let it snow let it snow let it snow
