lyrics

old man winter up in the mountains makin’ all the snow and ice
down in the valley all grows calm, you heed your neighbor’s good advice

summertime has come and gone, we’ve revelled in our vice
wintertime is coming on, it’s time to pay the price

old man winter that mean old coot will forge his cold accoutrements
old man father will bow his head and give the blessed sacrament

winter’s war strikes a chord on the strings of a lute or zither
the strings detuned, the old man croons and all will rot and wither

death prevails o’er hill and dale, the fool shall meet his end
winter’s fair, i’ll give him that he doesn’t spare a friend

old man winter...

well i know that all things must return to the state in which they formed
but i long for the day when laws decay and things are merely born

sure as it comes, winter must leave
spring comes along, grants it’s reprieve

sure as it comes springtime must go
it never shall end, as all of us know
