The First Fall Of Snow Lyrics - Hank Williams

I talked with a stranger, so sad and forlorn 

His garments were sackcloth, all tattered and torn 

He told me a story, of sorrow and woe 

His heart went to heaven, at the first fall of snow 

He spoke of his angel, a dear baby girl 

He loved ev'ry footstep, he loved ev'ry curl 

But she went to heaven, just one year ago 

The angels came for her, at the first fall of snow 

He still had the dolly that she used to love 

He held and caressed it and gazed up above 

He whispered, âE½My baby, you're waiting, I know 

I'll bring you, your dolly at the first fall of snowâE 

And there as I listened, my eyes filled with tears 

I knew she was part of his happier years 

His frail body trembled, he spoke soft and low 

I'll be with my baby at the first fall of snow

I patted his shoulder, my feelings to hide 

He couldn't know I was crying inside 

He smiled as we parted, 'cause he didn't know 

That we lost our baby at the first fall of snow
