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!"
