January Man Lyrics & Tabs by Rachel Unthank & The Winterset
January Man
guitar chords lyrics
The January man, he walks the road
In woolen coat and boots of leather
The February man, he shakes the snow
From off his hair and blows his hands
The man of March he sees the spring
And wonders what the year will bring
And hopes for better weather
Through April rains the man comes down
To watch the birds come in to share the summer
The man of May stands very still
Watching the children dance away the day
In June, the man inside, the man
Is young and wants to lend a hand
And grins at each new color
And in July, the man in cotton shirt
Is young and wants to lend a hand
And grins at each new color
And in July, the man in cotton shirt
He sits and thinks on being idle
The August man in thousands takes the road
To watch the sea and find the sun
September man is standing near
To saddle up another year
And Autumn is his bridle
The man of new October takes the reins
And early frost is on his shoulder
The poor November man sees fire and rain
Snow and mist and wintry gale
December man looks through the snow
To let eleven brothers know
They're all a little older
The January man comes 'round again
In woolen coat and boots of leather
To take another turn
Along the icy road he knows so well
For January man is here
At the start of each and every year
Along that road forever
