Subject: Lyr Req: Little Jackie Frost From: GUEST,Buckshot Dot Date: 22 Apr 13 - 11:51 PM My Kansas grandmother sang Little Jackie Frost: Little Jackie Frost was fierce and bold. He makes the little children shake with cold. . . . . turning all the leaves red, brown and gold. . . . painting all the windows. . . . Bidding them goodbye with a tap! Tap! Tap! Can anyone supply any more lyrics? I remember the tune. |
Subject: ADD: Little Jackie Frost (various songs) From: Joe Offer Date: 23 Apr 13 - 02:41 AM This is not the right one - but since I found it, I thought I'd post it: LITTLE JACKIE, JACK FROST Little Jackie, Jack Frost Little Jackie, Jack Frost bites my nose, Little Jackie, Jack Frost stings my toes, Little Jackie, Jack Frost climbs the trees, Little Jackie, Jack Frost paints the leaves. Little Jackie, Jack Frost thinks it's fun Knocking all the leaves down one by one. When the winter wind begins to blow, Little Jackie runs away, Ho! Ho! Source: http://www.sunnylandsnurseryschool.com/docs/january_poems.pdf And a couple of YouTube videos of little girls singing yet another "Little Jackie Frost" song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kuIdP4E1-U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0qZQoYx1pM Little Jackie Frost, pinch my nose. Little Jackie Frost, pinch my toes, And so I went into the house, and I shut the door, And Little Jackie Frost didn't pinch me anymore. |
Subject: ADD: Little Jacky Frost From: Joe Offer Date: 23 Apr 13 - 02:45 AM This isn't the right one, either, but I thought I'd add it: JACKY FROST (poem by Laura E. Richards, music by Eleanor Smith) Jacky Frost, Jacky Frost, Came in the night; Left the meadows that he crossed, All gleaming white. Painted with his silver brush Every window-pane. Kissed the leaves and made them blush, Blush and blush again. Jacky Frost, Jacky Frost, Crept around the house, Sly as a silver fox, Still as a mouse. Out our little Jenny came, Blushing like a rose; Up jumped Jacky Frost, And pinched her little nose. Source: http://www.mcclenaghan.info/jacky%20frost.html The song appears in "The Common School Book of Vocal Music" by Eleanor Smith, and is over a hundred years old. And some more from an archive of a dead page, http://www.earlyliterature.ecsd.net/jack_frost.htm
Jack Frost
Jack Frost is a fairy small.
Jack Frost
Who comes creeping in the night
When Jack Frost Comes
When Jack Frost comes -
The Brook and Jack Frost
A pretty brook was running at play
My Nose
Where did you get that little red nose?
Who's There?
Jack Frost rapped on the windowpane
Jack Frost
Who comes creeping
A Riddle
Somebody's been in the garden |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Little Jackie Frost From: GUEST Date: 02 Nov 14 - 08:49 AM My Texas grandmother sang that song too. These are lyrics I remember. Would love to know them all. "Little Jackie Frost came over the hill, On a starry night when all was still, Painting all the leaves yellow, brown and gold..." |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Little Jackie Frost From: GUEST Date: 27 Mar 18 - 01:27 PM Little Jackie Frost (My Grandmother Dorothy Leighton Hoovler sang me this song when I was a child.There were two lines missing, only one of which I was able to remember).Thanks to those who have responded to my original request! Little Jackie Frost is fierce and bold, He makes the little children shake with cold . . . . . . Painting all the leaves red, brown and gold. On each little flower he placed a frosty cap, Bidding them goodbye with a tip, tap, tap. Soon they will sleep in the earth below Under a blanket of ice and snow, Waking up again in springtime gay After Jackie Frost has gone away. |
