The Snowman Lyrics

When it snows in New England
It looks just like a Christmas card
But down here in North Carolina
Well the snow barely covers the yard
So I built a dirty little snowman
And a dirty little sleigh
Two dirty little reindeer to show the way
As the sun beats down on this Carolina day
I'll say goodbye to Frosty today
He was a dirty little snowman
My dirty little friend
Too bad he had to quickly meet his end
As the sun beats down on this Carolina day
I'll say goodbye to Frosty today
We talked for a while
I gave him a smile
And a carrot to use for his nose
I kept looking for snow
But as the sun rose
Frosty's twinkle started to go
He was my dirty little snowman
My dirty little friend
Some day I hope that we'll meet again
As it gets closer to Christmas Day
Can Santa bring some snow on his sleigh?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
