Lyrics:
The world's best weatherman
Is no man at all.
He's an intuitive,
Hairy groundhog.
He's from Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania,
And lives in a hole atop of
Gobler's Knob.
Chorus:
And when we need to know if we'll
Have early spring or winter still...
We'll just ask Punxsutawney Phil.
If he sees his shadow
He'll go back in his hole.
Then we'll know winter has
Six weeks to go.
But if it's a cloudy day
He'll come outside,
And we'll say, "Hooray for Punxsutawney Phil!"
Bridge:
Punxsutawney Phil
Can you tell me,
How'd you get to be America's groundhog?
Punxsutawney Phil
Can you smell me?
I just want to be the first to shake your paw,
But naw!
You go back in your hole,
And winter is so cold.
(Repeat verse one.)
(Chorus)
