Look Out the Window Winter Song

This has such a catchy melody, and it's not necessarily about Christmas.

Gene Autry and Rosemary Clooney did a version, but I like the Tex Williams one better.



The Winter Song

Look out the window, look out the window.
See the snowflakes fall.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Winter's come to call.

Children singing, sleigh bells ringing as they glide along.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Singin' the winter song.

Out there where the snowman stands on the icy lawn.

Children run to shake his hands for when the sun shines, he'll be gone.

Hurry, hurry, see the flurry.
Winter won't last long.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Singin' the winter song.

Hear the voices shoutin', oh, goodness, what an outin'.
It's winter, it's winter again.

See the snow flakes fallin', winter sports are callin'.
It's winter, it's winter time again.

Look out the window, look out the window.
See the snowflakes fall.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Winter's come to call.

Children singing, sleigh bells ringing as they glide along.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Singin' the winter song.

Out there where the snowman stands on the icy lawn.

Children run to shake his hands for when the sun shines, he'll be gone.

Hurry, hurry, see the flurry.
Winter won't last long.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Singin' the winter song.

Look out the window, look out the window.
Singin' the winter song.

I just looked (not out the window) at a modern version of it on YouTube, and instead of saying 'winter's come to call' they say 'winter's come too cold' which is kind of dumb and doesn't rhyme.

It's really got that western style to it. I have a list of songs like this that I listen to when I need cheering up.

A great picture--now the song is another story!

I can imagine 'look out the window' becoming a sort of joke like 'where's the beef.'
