May not be exactly right, but they are close...........

Keep them cold icy fingers off of me

by Fairly Holden

Bill Johnson was a fellow
who believed in hainted sights
he used to dream about 'em
when he went to bed at night

And when he'd dream about 'em
you could nearly always tell
he'd just pull back the covers
he'd jump right out and yell

Chorus:
Keep them cold icy fingers off of me
Keep them cold icy fingers off of me

I don't mind them naked bones
I can stand the collar drone?????
but keep them cold icy fingers off of me.

One night as Bill was passing
A grave yard on the hill
something dressed in white jumped out
and made a grab at Bill
Bill said you may catch me
but I'll make you do your best
before we start to travel
I'll make one last request

Chorus

You may run me out of breath
you may scare me half to death but
keep them cold icy fingers off of me.

Bill went to see the doctor
had a misery in his chest
the doctor looked at him and said
take off your coat and vest

he started tapping on his ribs
which gave bill such a shock
but he just grabbed the doctors hand
and he said now look out son

Chorus

You can cure my aches and ills
with your powders and your pills
but keep them cold icy fingers off of me

Patsy,
Hope this is the one your Dad was looking for.
