it's such CHEEKY sight to see the
fields OF snowy white. Il takes the
years and let's them skid. and once
again I'm Just a kid.
And in my heart again I know
the childhood JOY OF seeing snow:
again / feel the olden thrill OF going
coasslng down the hill; and youthful
memory recalls the noble art OF
throwing balls.
SO when | see n chcHty guy go
nonchalantly marching by. I want
to make bali OF snow. as in the
days OF long ago, and try TO hit the
gink crack about the middle of the
back.
And when the sleds go coasting
by. / always have to have try: the
kids all think it's fun 10 see an anti.
quated guy Ike me 20 sliding swiftly
down the hill, and strike a bump and
take n spill.

and feel the thrill we used 10 know
