Sleigh bells ring are you listening?In the lane, snow is glistening A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight Walking in a winter wonderlandGone away is the bluebirdHere to stay is the new bird Who sings a love song as we go along Walking in a winter wonderlandIn the meadow we will build a snowmanAnd we’ll pretend that he is Parson Brown He’ll say, “Are you married?” We’ll say, “No man But you can do the job when you’re in town”Later on, we’ll conspireAs we groove by the fire To face unafraid, the plans that we’ve made Walking in a winter wonderlandIn the meadow we can build a snowman (snowman)We’ll pretend that he is Parson Brown He’ll say, “Are you married?” We’ll say, “No man (what now, man?) But you can do the job when you’re in town”Later on, we’ll conspireAs we groove by the fire To face unafraid, plans that we’ve made Walkin’ in a winter wonderland Ah-la-li-la, ah-la-li-la Walkin’ in a winter wonderland Ah-la-li-la, ah-la-li-la
