who is Parson Brown??

so the christmas season is apon us...that means i get to listen to christmas music whenever and wherever possible...even in the car - because david loves me. so the song winter wonderland has some questionable lyrics and i cant seem to find anything on the world wide web that can explain them...so i am asking my friends here on my blog. just what is this song about and who is parson brown and why does he the snowman turn into parson brown in one verse and a clown in another?? anyone else confused by this?? just wondering...i did find one guys description of what he thought ...and david and i talked about it but i am still very unclear on this whole thing. so friends what do you think??

I always thought he was like a priest who was going to marry the girl off to someone... But now looking at the whole lyrics I'm not so sure... hmm.. very good question though...

Being a devout church member I would think you would be smart enough to know that "Parson" is a minister. Why does everyone have to disect a "meaning" OUT OF EVERY SONG THEY HEAR. This song was written well before there was a "sexual" meaning behind every lyric. This is a song about two people being in love and wishing they were married-that is all.
