Frosty the Snowman Lyrics

Frosty the snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made of coal

Frosty the snowman
Is a fairytale, 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 they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around!

Oh, 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, clumsy as he can be
See him lopping along!
Off he goes on an icicle spree
With a happy song!
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
Runnin' here and there
All around the square
Sayin', "catch me if you can."

He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop . .
And only paused a moment
When he heard him holler, "stop!"

Hmm, frosty the snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye, sayin' "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!
