Lyrics[]
- La la la la la la
- La la la la la la la
- A winter's day, a bitter snowflake on my face
- My summer girl takes little backward steps away
- Jack Frost took her hand and left me
- Jack Frost ain't so cool
- Sell me a coat with buttons of silver
- Sell me a coat that's red or gold
- Sell me a coat with little patch pockets
- Sell me a coat 'cause I feel cold
- And when she smiles, the ice forgets to melt away
- Not like before, her smile was warming yesterday
- See the trees like silver candy, feel my icy hand
- Sell me a coat with buttons of silver
- Sell me a coat that's red or gold
- Sell me a coat with little patch pockets
- Sell me a coat 'cause I feel cold
- See my eyes, my window pane
- See my tears like gentle rain
- That's the memory of a summer day
- Sell me a coat with buttons of silver
- Sell me a coat that's red or gold
- Sell me a coat with little patch pockets
- Sell me a coat 'cause I feel cold
- Sell me a coat with buttons of silver
- Sell me a coat that's red or gold
- Sell me a coat with little patch pockets
- Sell me a coat 'cause I feel cold
- La la la la la la (repeat)
