Lyrics
(verse)
From making cars to making stars, the town where I grew up,
Grows so cold at Christmas time when heaven covers us,
With snowflakes that always create a very special place.
(chorus)
It's gonna be a Snowtown in Motown,
Bright colored lights, streets covered in white.
Oh, gonna be a Snowtown in Motown,
Snowmen everywhere, magic fills the air.
(verse)
Each year Jack Frost appears, friends huddle in the snow,
Lovers cuddle up and kiss beneath the mistletoe,
And some kids buy their Christmas gifts by shoveling the snow.
(chorus)
There's gonna be a Snowtown in Motown,
Bright colored lights, streets covered in white.
Yeah, gonna be a Snowtown in Motown,
Snowmen everywhere, magic fills the air.
Everywhere, everywhere?
(instrumental section)
(chorus)
There's gonna be a Snowtown in Motown,
Bright colored lights, streets covered in white.
Yeah, gonna be a Snowtown in Motown,
Snowmen everywhere, magic fills the air.
(repeat into fade out)
