Lyrics
Santa's Eyes
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP) Copyright 2011
All alone sittin' under the tree
Wonderin' what my presents will be
When all at once I saw an incredible sight
Right there by the chimney, standin' in the light
Chorus 1:
I looked in Santa's eyes
Oh (My) what a big surprise
Old St. Nick had come to see me (bringin' Christmas cheer) tonight
He asked if I had been a good boy
I said yes, did you bring me a toy
Santa laughed and laughed and looked around in his sack
Then with a sneaky little grin, pulled out a bottle of Jack
Bridge:
Santa, Oh Santa
The kids are all in bed
So it's alright
Santa, Oh Santa
Let's have a little toast
And then we'll call it a night
Santa left with a ho ho ho
And his cheeks had that rosy glow
I thanked him for the family presents
And for thinking of me
Then I bid him goodbye and asked the reindeer to drive
'Cause you see...
Final Chorus:
I looked in Santa's eyes
As red as cherry pie
Yeah, Jolly Old St. Nick
Came to see me tonight
