i was drivin through the timber 'round about december, took a wrong turn somewhere
straight up north in a bent-frame ford, it was lookin mighty snowy up there
saw a jolly old coot in a bright red suit, he was hitchin up a gaggle of deer
yellin "pull that sled boys, the kids are in bed and we're leavin kinda late this year"
giddyup said santa claus, dasher get your mittens
'cause it's gettin mighty cold outside
christmas is a-comin, better get a-runnin
son, we got a long, long ride
we gotta roll these toys from tampa to boise
visit every kid in l.a.
london to atlanta, hurry said santa,
christmas is a dream away
well i called to the stranger, buddy i'm in danger, loster than a bug in the grass
polar bears growlin, shaggy wolves howlin and i'm gettin mighty low on gas
dontchya be naggin, we can hitch up your wagon and tow you where you're needin to go
and off we went at a hundred and ten, over the boulders and snow
giddyup said santa claus ...
now i was feelin right cheerful when man i got an earful of the merriest music around
he was dancin and a-singin to the sleigh bells ringin but lord i shoulda never looked down
when i rolled down the winder and peered across my fender we were forty miles up in the air
cuttin pirouettes around rockets and jets, headin out for who-knows-where
oh please, mr jolly, take me back to raleigh, terra firma's where i belong
he just kept on drivin, janglin and jivin, singin all his yuletide songs
yeah it was cold and windy but he never missed a chimney
stopped at ever little one's den
every bundle and bow in a fine bright row and he was back in the saddle again
giddyup said santa claus ...
well i kinda got to diggin all the zaggin and ziggin and the flyin and the presents and fun
and by dawn next day, i was up in the sleigh and we were talkin about christmas to come
now time keeps turnin and i keep a-learnin but brother, dontchya know i'm still here
santa's on his night run, i'm ridin shotgun, looks like another good year

I've come to your music a little late, but better late than never! Great songs--even better harmonies <3 . I hope the next time you get together it will be sooner than 20 years! sylvia_s
