Some folks like the summertime when they can walk about
|
Strolling through the meadow green, it's pleasant there's no doubt
|
But give me the wintertime when the snow is on the ground
|
For I found her when the snow was on the ground
|
|
I traced her little footprints in the snow
|
I found her little footprints in the snow, Lord
|
I bless that happy day that 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'd just stepped, but'd be returning soon
|
I found her little footprints and I traced them through the snow
|
And I found her when the snow was on the ground
|
|
Oh, I traced her little footprints in the snow
|
I found her little footprints in the snow, Lord
|
I bless that happy day that Nellie lost her way
|
For 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 gonna 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
|
|
Oh, I traced her little footprints in the snow
|
I found her little footprints in the snow, Lord
|
I bless that happy day that Nellie lost her way
|
For I found her when the snow was on the ground
