Cowboy Christmas

It was he night before Christmas, he was running out of time
The rodeo had ridden him 'bout down to his last dime
He got the buck [?] back in Denver and missed the short go again
And now he's wondering how he'll make it home before it all begins

There'll be a, cowboy Christmas going on
Ropers and wranglers wrapped up for everyone
There'll be country cooking on the stove
Tinsel and lights, eggnog and mistletoe
Kinfold from all around coming home
There'll be a, cowboy Christmas going on

He'd done a little shopping between Phoenix and Cheyenne
Got a [?] bag for Barbie, a new guitar for little Lan
Picked up a Sunday dress for momma and a Stetson hat for dad
Bought a rocking horse for Tommy and brother Bill a pair of chaps
But there was one little hitch in this getup...

He had all these presents in the ride home
He looked down at his watch and was about to give up all hope
You see it was almost midnight, less than a minute away
When a jolly man in a red suit pulled up and said
"Don't worry partner, your house is on my way
And if you can hang on for 8 seconds,
That's all it takes to get there on a sleigh"

Now there's a, cowboy Christmas going on
Ropers and wranglers wrapped up for everyone
There'll be country cooking on the stove
Tinsel and lights, eggnog and mistletoe
Kinfold from all around coming home
There'll be a, cowboy Christmas
A cowgirl Christmas, that's right
A cowboy Christmas going on
