Santa's on his way

Who do you think will be coming tonight?.
Keep your sweet smiles cheery and bright
The stars will be twinkling all through the sky
He'll guide his sleigh above all our houses by and by.
Such a great family and our friends we hold dear
Many wonderful memories made together this past year
Be good tonight, don't dare utter a word like "poo"
'cause he'll put lumps of coal in your little shoe
A time to savour the good in each other
I'm getting sappy so I'll quit now, oh brother!
............
You really didn't think it was over that quick?
What is that sound? Could it be St. Nick?
It's raining now so he'll be able to land
Everything works out according to his plan
This morning we were anxious as the snow was deep
From out of the windows we took a quick peep
Half of it's gone with the wind and the rain
Snow is coming tonight, so 10 centimeters we'll gain.
Merry Christmas wishes from our hearth and home
We're all now officially in Santa's delivery zone !
