Ho the old Snow Man	A
That Noey Bixler made	B
He looked as fierce and sassy	C
As a soldier on parade	B
'Cause Noey when he made him	D
While we all wuz gone you see	C
He made him jist a purpose	E
Jist as fierce as he could be	C
But when we all got ust to him	D
Nobody wuz afraid	B
Of the old Snow Man	A
That Noey Bixler made	B
	-
'Cause Noey told us 'bout him	D
And what he made him fer	F
He'd come to feed that morning	G
He found we wuzn't here	H
And so the notion struck him	D
When we all come taggin' home	I
'Tud s'prise us ef a' old Snow Man	A
'Ud meet us when we come	J
So when he'd fed the stock and milked	K
And ben back home and chopped	L
His wood and et his breakfast he	C
Jist grabbed his mitts and hopped	L
Right in on that air old Snow Man	A
That he laid out he'd make	M
Er bust a trace a tryin' jist	L
Fer old acquaintance sake	M
But work like that wuz lots more fun	N
He said than when he played	L
Ho the old Snow Man	A
That Noey Bixler made	L
	-
He started with a big snow ball	O
And rolled it all around	L
And as he rolled more snow 'ud stick	P
And pull up off the ground	L
He rolled and rolled all round the yard	L
'Cause we could see the track	Q
All wher' the snow come off you know	R
And left it wet and black	Q
He got the Snow Man's legs part rolled	L
In front the kitchen door	S
And then he hat to turn in then	T
And roll and roll some more	S
He rolled the yard all round agin	U
And round the house at that	L
Clean round the house and back to wher'	S
The blame legs half wuz at	L
He said he missed his dinner too	L
Jist clean fergot and stayed	L
There workin' Ho the old Snow Man	A
That Noey Bixler made	L
	-
And Noey said he hat to hump	V
To git the top half on	W
The legs half When he did he said	L
His wind wuz purt' nigh gone	X
He said I jucks he jist drapped down	Y
There on the old porch floor	S
And panted like a dog And then	T
He up and rolled some more	S
The last batch that wuz fer his head	L
And time he'd got it right	L
And clumb and fixed it on he said	L
He hat to quit fer night	L
And then he said he'd kep' right on	W
Ef they'd ben any moon	Z
To work by So he crawled in bed	L
And could a slep' tel noon	Z
He wuz so plum wore out he said	L
But it wuz washin' day	L
And hat to cut a cord o' wood	L
'Fore he could git away	L
	-
But last he got to work agin	U
With spade and gouge and hoe	R
And trowel too All tools 'ud do	L
What Noey said you know	R
He cut his eyebrows out like cliffs	A2
And his cheekbones and chin	B2
Stuck furder out and his old nose	C2
Stuck out as fur agin	U
He made his eyes o' walnuts	D2
And his whiskers out o' this	E2
Here buggy cushion stuffin' moss	F2
The teacher says it is	G2
And then he made a' old wood' gun	N
Set keerless like you know	R
Acrost one shoulder kindo' like	H2
Big Foot er Adam Poe	R
Er mayby Simon Girty	L
The dinged old Renegade	L
Wooh the old Snow Man	A
That Noey Bixler made	L
	-
And there he stood all fierce and grim	D
A stern heroic form	I2
What was the winter blast to him	D
And what the driving storm	I2
What wonder that the children pressed	L
Their faces at the pane	J2
And scratched away the frost in pride	L
To look on him again	T
What wonder that with yearning bold	L
Their all of love and care	S
Went warmest through the keenest cold	L
To that Snow Man out there	S
	-
But the old Snow Man	A
What a dubious delight	L
He grew at last when Spring came on	W
And days waxed warm and bright	L
Alone he stood all kith and kin	B2
Of snow and ice were gone	X
Alone with constant teardrops in	B2
His eyes and glittering on	W
His thin pathetic beard of black	Q
Grief in a hopeless cause	K2
Hope hope is for the man that dies	L2
What for the man that thaws	M2
O Hero of a hero's make	M
Let marble melt and fade	L
But never you you old Snow Man	A
That Noey Bixler made	L
