Found you near the end of October
Before the snow had come around
You were just a little broken sparrow
I found there layin' on the ground
Picked you up and took you home to my place
Just in time to miss old Jack Frost
The days were months before I knew it
And much too soon our Winter had passed
It was Spring when birdies sing
And fly about up in the sky with wings all mended
The groundhog showed his face to the whole human race
At that place in Punxsatawney town
And I couldn't show my tears
As I raised my hand to wave
Goodbye
Each year near the end of October
Before the snow has come around
I walk with my memories to that meadow
Where I found you layin' on the ground
Old friends say I'm full of pipedreams
But it's memories that help me carry on
Through my closing days that hurry by me
Now that all the leaves have come down
And it's Spring when birdies sing
And fly about up in the sky with wings all mended
The groundhog showed his face to the whole human race
At that place in Punxsatawney town
And I couldn't show my tears
As I raised my hand to wave
Goodbye
[Spoken] All my old friends are happy when the Spring comes
But for me, Spring is the sad time
The time of year we said goodbye
And it's Spring when birdies sing
And fly about up in the sky with wings all mended
The groundhog showed his face to the whole human race
At that place in Punxsatawney Town
And I couldn't show my tears
As I raised my hand to wave
Goodbye
