Re: Merry Christmas from across the Pond ! It's the night before Christmas
And out in the garage No trace of a Chevy, nor even a Dodge Our gifts are all wrapped And the tree is all lit So I thought that I'd mess with my 'Stang for a bit As I popped the release And lifted the hood A voice from behind me said "Looks pretty good"! Caught by surprise, I turned around quick In front of my workbench stood Good old Saint Nick! We stood there a bit, Not sure what to say Then he said "Don't suppose you'd trade for my sleigh"? I said " No way, Santa," and started to grin "But if you've got the time, Wanna go for a spin?" I didn't know whether he'd say "Yes" or "No." But he started to smile, then said "Okay, let's go!" So not to disturb the neighbors asleep We pushed my 'Stang quietly out to the street. Snow fell this morning and covered the lawn But it's been cold today, so not much was gone With drifts piling up all over the city The moonlight upon them reflected so pretty Then we both hopped in to leave Boulder Hill I twisted the key and started the mill The bark from the engine took him by surprise But he liked it a lot, from the look in his eyes With Michelins squealing and pipes all aglow We both headed off, ignoring the snow And Santa's grin widened as I dripped down a gear "This sure beats the sleigh that I've driven all year!" Down backroads and byways, my 'Stang fairly flew The wind in our face blew his beard all askew And he yelled "Can't recall when I've felt so alive!" So I eased off the gas and asked: "You wanna drive?" Ol' Santa was shocked when I handed the keys! As he walked around the headlights, he shook at his knees! The 'Stang roared back to life with its thundering sound Santa dropped it in "Low" and the car shook the ground Then shifted to Second, and then into Third I just sat there grinning, at loss for a word Then I heard him exclaim as we roared out of sight "Merry Christmas to all... it's been a GREAT NIGHT!" |
