John Prine - Humidity Built The Snowman lyrics

Does he still think about her

Why there was never really any doubt

Every time he lights a candle

Or blows a candle out

The scientific nature of the ordinary man

Is to go on out and do the best you can

I don't think that you know

That I think you don't know

That old barometer goes crazy baby

Every time it starts to snow

You won't find me walking

Round your part of town

Humidity built the snowman

Sunshine brought him down

This world is full of people

They never seem to fall

Somebody said they seen you

You hadn't changed at all

The fundamental story

Of the contemporary man

Is to walk away and someday understand

I don't think that you know

That I think you don't know

That old barometer goes crazy baby

Every time it starts to snow

You won't find me walking

Round your part of town

Humidity built the snowman

Sunshine brought him down

The scientific nature of the ordinary man

Is to go on out and do the best you can

I don't think that you know

That I think you don't know

That old barometer goes crazy baby

Every time it starts to snow

You won't find me walking

Round your part of town

Humidity built the snowman

Sunshine brought him down

Humidity built the snowman

Sunshine brought him down

Brought him down
