Frosty the Snowman - Harry Connick, Jr.

Come a little closer children, I've got a story to tell (Oh gee) It's about a man you've heard of, and I knew him well. (How well?) He was born on a cold winter's morning, And went on to gain great fame. But may I begin my story, And refer to him by name? (Please do) Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul (ooooh) With a corn cob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal Frosty the snowman made the children smile they say. And were they surprised when he rolled his eyes And he came to life that day! There must of been some magic In that ol' silk cap they found For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around Frosty the snowman was alive as he could be And the children say he could laugh and play Just the same as you and me With a corncob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal! Were they surprised when he rolled his eyes and he came to life that day! (But Uncle Jimmy, you didn't finish your story.) I know, I just paused to catch my breath. (What happened to frosty when he came to life that day?) Well he got in a lot of trouble, you see? Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day So he said let's run and we'll have some fun before I melt away. (Where'd he go?) Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand Runnin' here and there and around the square Sayin', "Catch me if you can" He led them down the streets of town Right to the traffic cop And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler, "Stop!" Frosty the snowman had to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye sayin' don't you cry I'll be back again someday! Thumpety, thump, thump Thumpety, thump, thump Look at that Frosty go Thumpety, thump, thump Thumpety, thump, thump Over the hills of snow

Frosty the snowman Was a jolly, happy soul With a corncob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal "Frosty the snowman Is a fairy tale", they say He was made of snow But the children know How he came to life one day There must have been some magic In that old silk hat they found For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around Frosty the snowman Was alive as he could be And the children say "He could laugh and play" Just the same as you and me Frosty the snowman Knew the sun was hot that day So he said, "Let's run And we'll have some fun Now before I melt away" Down to the village With a broomstick in his hand Running here and there All around the square Saying, "Catch me if you can" He led them down The streets of town Right to the traffic cop And he only paused a moment When he heard them holler, "Stop!" Frosty the snowman Had to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye Saying, "Don't you cry I'll be back again some day" Thumpety thump-thump Thumpety thump-thump Look at Frosty go Thumpety thump-thump Thumpety thump-thump Over the hills of snow

(*Charlie Chaplin, John Turner, Geoffrey Parsons) Smile tho' your heart is aching, Smile Even though it's breaking, When there are clouds in the sky You'll get by, If you Smile through your fear and sorrow, Smile and maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through- For you. Light up your face with gladness, Hide ev'ry trace of sadness, Altho' a tear may be ever so near, That's the time you must keep on trying, Smile- What's the use of crying, You'll find that life is still worthwhile, If you just smile.

Someday, you'll want me like I want you But I'll be gone with somebody new Someday, you will cry the way I did You'll hang your head, but tears can't be hidden You'll walk the floor day and night Not a thing will be going right Your nerves will keep you in despair You'll be pulling out your hair Someday, love will get you down you'll see You're gonna suffer the way you've done for me You'll walk the floor day and night Not a thing will be going right Your nerves will keep you in despair Girl, you'll be pulling out your hair Someday, love will get you down you'll see You're gonna suffer the way you've done for me You're gonna suffer the way you've done for me
