This is a song that celebrates the power of Minnesota winters by a band based in Minneapolis. The dark and cold are tough, but with the help of hotdish and sunlight on glittering snow, you can make it to spring thaw. "Oh Minnesota, have mercy on me." HAVE MERCY Up here in the north, we like our dish hot And mostly we're satisfied, but sometimes we're not That mean old winter trying to leave you to rot And the wind makes you cry without even a thought I'm not a woman of faith, but in January, even I pray Have mercy, have mercy, oh Minnesota have mercy on me The only things living are those sweet evergreens And the long dark days bring me to my knees It's the seventh day of as many degrees But the north don't care she just do what she please I'm not a woman of faith, but come February, even I pray Have mercy, have mercy, oh Minnesota have mercy on me Give me sunlight on the glittering snow The kind of peace only northerners know I've had as much gray as my cold heart can take And the endless darkness seems like it'll stay, and stay, and stay Have mercy, have mercy, oh Minnesota have mercy on me
