I awoke today and found the frost perched on the town 
It hovered in a frozen sky 
Then it gobbled summer down 
When the sun turns traitor cold 
And shivering trees are standing in a naked row 

I get the urge for going 
But I never seem to go 
I get the urge for going 
When the meadow grass is turning brown and 
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in 

I had me a man in summertime 
He had summer-colored skin 
Not another girl in town 
My darling's heart could win 
But when the leaves fell trembling down 
Bully winds did rub their faces in the snow 

He got the urge for going 
And I had to let him go 
He got the urge for going 
When the meadow grass was turning brown and 
Summertime was falling down and winter was closing in 

The warriors of winter 
They gave a cold triumphant shout 
And all that stays is dying 
All that lives is getting out 
See the geese in chevron flight 
Flapping and racing on before the snow 

They've got the urge for going 
And they've got the wings to go 
They get the urge for going 
When the meadow grass is turning brown and 
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in 

I ply the fire with kindling now 
I pull the blankets up to my chin 
I lock the vagrant winter out 
And fool my wandering in 
I'd like to call back summertime and 
Have her stay for just another month or so 

She's got the urge for going 
So I guess she'll have to go 
She gets the urge for going 
When the meadow grass is turning brown and 
All her empires are falling down and 
Winter's closing in 

And I get the urge for going 
When the meadow grass was turning brown and 
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in 
And winter's closing in 
And winter's closing in
