Little Snowbird. Little- snowbird in the snow. As you twitter to and fro In the dreary winter day When the sky is dull and gray. Looking Tor a crumb to eat, » How the frost must nip your feet As the arctic breezes blow.' Little snowbird in the snow! Why should you in northland stay? You he vc wines to fly away To a sunny clime.and fair— Other. lit-le birds are there— Where the food in plenty lies Under more alluring skies. Why not pack your duds and go. Little snewbird in the snow? If I had some wings like you That is just what I would do. Were you not aware that soon Blizzards would set up a tune. Making snow in eddies spin And the picking mighty thin? Not a most alluring show. Little snowbird in tfie snow. Little snowbird in the snow. We have naught on tap but woe. Worms 'are buried three feet deep. Where they will be sure to keep. Crumbs of comfort are as rare As on shiny heads a hair.: On you pity I bestow. Little Snowbird in the snow.
