Now some folks like the summertime
When they can walk about
Strolling through the meadow green
It's pleasant there, no doubt
But give me the wintertime
When the snow is on the ground
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
Bless that happy day when Nellie lost her way
I found her when the snow was on the ground.
I went out to see her
There was a big, round moon
Her mother said she just stepped out
But would be returning soon
I found her little footprints
And I traced them in the snow
I found her when the snow
Was on the ground.
Now she's up in heaven
She's with the angel band
I know I'm going to meet her
In that promised land
Everytime the snow falls
It brings back memories
I found her when the snow
Was on the ground.
