The North Wind Doth Blow
Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Traditional, with additional lyrics by Joanie Calem

The north wind doth blow, and we shall have snow,
And what will the robin do then, sweet thing?
He’ll sit in the barn, to keep himself warm,
And hide his head under his wing, sweet thing………

The north wind doth blow, and we shall have snow,
And what will the dormouse do then, sweet thing?
Rolled up like a ball, in a nest snug and small,
She’ll sleep ‘til the warm weather comes, sweet thing………

The north wind doth blow, and we shall have snow,
And what will the squirrel do then, sweet thing?
She’ll climb up a tree, and look out to see,
And nibble on all of her food, sweet thing………

The north wind doth blow, and we shall have snow,
And what will the raccoon do then, sweet thing?
He’ll waddle around, leave footprints on the ground,
And find a warm burrow to sleep, sweet thing………

The north wind doth blow, and we shall have snow,
And what will the rabbit do then, sweet thing?
She’ll jump and she’ll hop, she won’t want to stop,
‘cause that’s how she’ll keep herself warm, sweet thing………
