Wintertime
Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Joanie Calem

 

Wintertime is cold time, slow time, snow time
Wintertime’s the soft time of the year

Rabbits hop through the cold,
Digging up their summer’s gold
Hop and jump every day,
They aren’t bothered by the gray.
Cardinals chatter in the trees
Finding winter’s nuts and seeds
All their other bird friends
Flew down south ‘til winter’s end.

CHORUS

Squirrels jump from branch to limb
Climbing trees with shimmy-shim
Busy all year round, nice warm nests above the ground.
Possums, skunks, and raccoons
All are friends of winters’ moons
Prowling round in mud or snow
The cold just makes their thick coats grow.

CHORUS

Now bears are different stories
When they hear the north wind’s song
They crawl into their caves
Sleep away the winter long.

CHORUS
