Winter Wonderland

Written in 1934 by Felix Bernard (composer) and Richard B. Smith (lyricist).

I never understood this bridge until I looked it up. Here is that info.

The bridge of the song contains the following lyrics:

"In the meadow we can build a snowman,
then pretend that he is Parson Brown.
He'll say 'Are You Married?' We'll say 'No man,
but you can do the job when you're in town!"

In the period when this song was written, parsons (now known as Protestant ministers) often traveled among small rural towns to perform wedding ceremonies for denominational followers who did not have a local minister of their own faith.

Nothing wrong here! What a beautiful job! Merry Christmas, my friend! Thanks for the "More info" info about the meaning of Parson. Interesting trivia. I was entertained and I learned something at the same time! Love your style! Easy-going, laid back and warmly welcoming.
