Footprints

Some folks like the summertime

When they can walk about

Strolling through the meadow's green

It's pleasant there no doubt

But give me the winter when snow

Is on the ground

I found her when the snow was on the ground.

I found her footprints in the snow

I traced her footprints in the snow

Bless that happy day that Nellie lost her way

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 be returning soon

I found her little footprints

And traced them through the snow

I found her when the snow was on the ground

I found her footprints in the snow

I traced her footprints in the snow

Bless the happy day that Nellie lost her way

I found her when the snow was on the ground
