Lyrics

  1. Winter time is freezing time
    Teasing time and squeezing time
    That’s the time to love
    With your lady love you go
    Skimming o’er the ice and snow
    Silver moon above
    Hear the sleigh bells ring
    Hear them ding-a-ling

Chorus
Winter, Winter
When the snow is softly falling
That’s the time to squeeze
When it starts to freeze
In October and November
And December just remember
Winter, Winter
When your sweetheart comes a-calling
By the fireside so bright
You’ll sit and tease her
That’s the time to squeeze her
When it’s winter

  1. Don’t be bashful, it’s no use
    Winter time’s a good excuse
    When you want to spoon
    Cuddle close and hold her tight
    Make her think it’s June tonight
    Talk of honey moon
    Wedding bells will ring
    Sometime in the Spring
