The Christmas rooftops
Are covered with snow
Casting a reflection
Of the winter moon glow

Then a shadow casting
From out of the sky
In the shape of 8 reindeer
That can mysteriously fly

As the shadow grows bigger
On the rooftop they land
Pulling a sleigh full of toys
And a jolly old man

Toward the chimney he goes
The burly man dressed in red
Hops up and goes down
While the kids are in bed

He sprinkles some magic
And brings life to the tree
With a rainbow of lights
And some Christmas glee

And neath the tree
He loads it up with new toys
Topped with dolls for the girls
And trucks for the boys

Then to mom and dads stockings
That hang on the wall
He slips in some envelopes  and say says
" that takes care of them all "

A quick sip of milk
And a cookie or two
Then back to the chimney
He's got lots to do

The man known as Santa
Hops back on his sleigh
And yells merry Christmas
As the deer take him away

Now down below
Excited children arise
Cuz the best way to see Christmas
Is through a child's eyes
