Now some folks like the summertime when the they can walk about |
|
Strolling through the meadow green, it's pleasant there no doubt |
|
But give me the wintertime when the snow is on the ground |
|
For I found her when the snow on the ground |
|
I traced her little footprints in the snow |
|
I found her little footprints in the snow |
|
I bless that happy day when Nellie lost her way |
|
For I found her when the snow was on the ground |
|
I dropped in to see her there was a big round moon |
|
Her mother said she just stepped out but would be returning soon |
|
I found her little footprints and I traced them in the snow |
|
I found her when the snow was on the ground |
|
Now she's up in heaven, she's with the angel band |
|
I know I'm going to meet her in that promised land |
|
But every time the snow falls, it brings back memories |
|
For I found her when the snow was on the ground |
