A neighbor tipped his hat to me this morning
The landlord even smiled and said good day
And I want you to know, a stranger said hello
Christmas can't be far away

Old titewad on the corners buying candy
To pass out to the local kids at play
The town is on the go, the weather man said snow
Christmas can't be far away

The small fry on our street have all been saving
They're hiding things and looking kind of sly
Mom will get that do-dat she's been craving
And dad'll get his usual tie

Both young and old are planning some surprises
They'll soon be wrap in paper bright and gay
Good will is in the air, you feel it everywhere
Christmas can't be far away

The small fry on our street have all been saving
They're hiding things and looking kind of sly
Mom gonna get that do-dat she's been craving
And dad'll get his customary tie

While both young and old are planning some surprises
They'll soon be wrap in paper bright and gay
Good will is in the air, you can feel it everywhere
Christmas can't be far away
