A few years ago there lived a lover 

by the name of Jimmy Jones.. 

who really snowed the girls and left them cold, 

and gained the title of 'The Great Snowman.' 

Chorus: 
E                            A            E 
I remember the day, when the snow melted away. 
                          B  B7 
And the Great Snowman was wed. 
         E      B 
He said, yes, I do.. 
           E             A 
and little Linda said it too, 
        E         B       E           B 
and the Great Snowman was we..eh..eh..ed. 
            E 
we..eh..eh..wed.

Now, Jimmy Jones was the Snowman's name, 
                           B 
he put all the other local lovers to shame. 
   B7 
He had good looks and a big fine car, 
    B                            E 
And went around breaking all the girlie's hearts. 
  E7 
Until one day the Great Snowman found, 
A 
Linda Lou, who started melting him down.. 
   F# 
He bought a ring and they set the day 
        B                     B7       B 
and the Great Snowman started melting away. 

Chorus: 

#2. 
E 
Now, the Great Snowman and his loving spouse, 
                        B 
live in a little sub-division house. 
     B7                    
They got six kids and his mother-in-law, 
      B                      E 
and expecting another kiddie in the Fall. 
    E7 
His old Cadillac needs the paint retouched, 
     A 
it's full of baby diapers and bottles and such, 
    F#                          B              B7    B 
the Great Snowman has outgrown..all his flashy Caddy clothes. 

Chorus: 


A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
