Footprints In The Snow lyrics

(A.P. Carter)
Some folks like the summertime when they can walk about
Strollin' through the meadow green it's pleasant there's no doubt
Give me the wintertime when the snow is on the ground
Found her when the snow was on the ground.
I traced the little footprints in the snow
I found my little footprints in the snow Lord
Bless that happy day when I have lost her way
I found her when the snow was on the ground.
--- Instrumental ---
I dropped in to see her there was a big round moon
Mother said just stepped out be returning soon
I found her little footprints I traced them through the snow
I found her when the snow was on the ground.
I traced the little footprints in the snow
I found my little footprints in the snow Lord
Bless that happy day when I have lost her way
I found her when the snow was on the ground.
--- Instrumental ---
Now she's up in heaven she's with an angel band
I know I'm gonna meet her in that promised land
Everytime the snow falls it brings back memories
For I found her when the snow was on the ground.
I traced the little footprints in the snow
I found my little footprints in the snow Lord
Bless that happy day when I have lost her way
I found her when the snow was on the ground...
