Christmas Don't Be Late

(album: Tennessee Christmas - 2016)

Time goes by, and Christsmas lists change
But some things don't ever change
Like the anticipation of being together
Christmas at our house is full of a whole lot of last minute everything
'Cause that's just our pace

Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast
Want a plane that loops the loop
Me, I want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don't be late

I guess I like nostalgic gifts because they remind me of my childhood
There was one year I gave the kids potholder kits
You know with the metal loons and the cotton loops?
It was a disaster
But before Christmas day was up, guess who was making potholders?
Everybody in the whole family
And you can't even wrap this under the tree but, here comes Christmas for me
Just getting to hear my girls sing

Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast
Want a plane that loops the loop
Me, I want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don't be late
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don't be late
