I TRACED HER LITTLE FOOTPRINTS IN THE SNOW Sung by: Ollie Gilbert Recorded in Mountain View, AR by George Fisher Click here to listen to the original recording When they can stroll about. Strolling through the meadow green, It’s pleasure there no doubt, But give me the wintertime-- The snow is on the ground-- For I found her when the snow was on the ground. Chorus: I traced her little footprints in the snow; I traced her little footprints in the snow. ‘Member the day that Nellie lost her way, For I found her when the snow was on the ground. Went one night to see her; It was a big round moon. Her mother said she stepped out, Would be returning soon. I traced her little footprints, And I found ‘em in the snow. Found her when the snow was on the ground. (Chorus) Now she’s up in Heaven; She’s with the angel band. Someday I’ll go and see her In that happy land. Every time the snow falls, It brings back memories, For I found her when the snow was on the ground. (Chorus) |
