"Frosty the Snowman" was recorded by Gene Autry for Columbia Records in 1950

Frosty the Snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And his eyes made out of coal
Frosty the Snowman
Made the children laugh and play
Were they surprised when before their eyes
He came to life that day

There must have been some magic
In that old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around

Oh Frosty the Snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me
