Footprints in the Snow Lyrics

Well, some folks like the summertime when they can walk about
Strolling through the meadow green is pleasant there's no doubt
But to me the wintertime is the best of all
'Cause I found her when the snow was on the ground

Chorus
I traced her little footprints in the snow
I found her little footprints in the snow
I bless that happy day when Nellie lost her way
'Cause I found her when the snow was on the ground


Now, the Ladies' Garment Workers walked out out last wintertime
One little union kitty was a dear sweetheart of mine
She walked around all winter on the picket line
But I found her when the snow was on the ground

Now, the Union Strike Committee didn't like me hanging around
Don't interfere with sisters while the strike is on
Don't go around like a ring-tailed tom
But I found her when the snow was on the ground

Chorus

She's somewhere out there marching with the union band
We'll get back together when the pension check comes in
But every time the snow falls, it brings back memories
'Cause I found her when the snow was on the ground

Chorus
