CHRISTMAS IN TEXAS
T' was the night before
Christmas,
In Texas you know,
Way out on the prairie,
without any snow.
Asleep in their cabin,
were Buddy and Sue,
A dreaming of Christmas,
like me and like you.
Not stockings but boots
at the foot of their beds,
For this was Texas,
What more need be said?
When all of a sudden
from out the still night,
There came such a ruckus,
it gave me a fright!
And I saw cross the
prairie,
like the shot from a gun,
A loaded up buckboard,
Come on at a run.
The driver was
"whistling"
and "shouting" with a
will,
The "Horses" (not
reindeer)
he drove with such skill.
"Come on there Buck, Poncho,
and Prince, to the right"
There'll be plenty of
travelin'
for you-all tonight..
The driver in his Levis,
and a shirt that was red,
Had a 10 gallon
Stetson on the top of his head.
As he stepped from the buckboard,
he was really a sight,
with his beard so
curly and white.
As he burst in the cabin,
the children awoke,
And both so astonished,
that neither one spoke.
And he filled up their
boots with such presents galore,
That neither could think
of a single thing more.
When Buddy recovered
the use of his jaws,
He asked in a whisper "
Are you really Santa
Claus?"
"Am I the real Santa?
Well, what do you think?
And he smiled as he gave
his mysterious wink.
Then he left in his
buckboard,
and called back in
a drawl,
-
TO ALL CHILDREN OF TEXAS
"MERRY CHRISTMAS"....."YEE HAW!"
