CHRISTMAS EVE
It’s Christmas eve
The children in bed
Mama and papa
Sipping drinks in the shed.
Bike put together
Doll house stands tall
Let’s eat some more rum balls
Then time to put in the call.
Hello? Santa? It’s us
The Millers on Main
We’re ready for deliveries
Now grab hold of the reins.
We’ve done all we could
Spent money we had
Could you help our small children,
Cuz they haven’t been bad.
I am sure you’ve been looking
Over the naughty and good
I promised the young ones
You wouldn’t bypass our hood.
So please Mr. Clause
Don’t forget our small street
We’ll stay awake and be listening
For your sleigh and the reindeer feet.
