Frosty The Snowman (Beach Boys) Lyrics
Frosty the snowmanWas a jolly happy soul With a corn-cob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coalFrosty the snowmanIs a fairy tale they say He was made of snow But the children know How he came to life one dayThere must have been some magicIn that old silk hat they found For when they placed it on his head He began to dance aroundFrosty the snowmanWas alive as he could be And the children say He could laugh and play Just the same as you and meFrosty the snowmanKnew 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 villageWith a broomstick in his hand Running here and there All around the square Saying, “Catch me if you can”He led them downThe streets of town Right to the traffic cop And he only paused a moment When he heard them holler, “Stop!”Frosty the snowmanHad to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye Saying, “Don’t you cry I’ll be back again some day”
