Old winter snaps, but in their wraps they toss
and tumble over it.
In laughing, jolly tumble,
Through snowdrift first they stumble
Then snuw man, like n dough man
Though he really looks like no mum
They freeze stiif rs any Roman,
Ere he has chance to crumble.
So hello! Who loves the snow
Let him out APPLYING go!
On the roatl it makes a cushion so the wheels
can't rattle over it,
But all the boys in merry whrls they romp
and battle over it,
Then the girls, both high and humble,
Brin; their sleds without Il grumble,
And a-coasting cheeks aroasting,
Every one of speed aboasting,
Down the Hill they all go coasting,
With jounce and bounce and tumble.

Let him out APPLYING go!
