She was on my arm Christmas Eve last year
When he came along, he had this glimmer in his eye
My baby fell for him like stars fall from the sky
He swept her off her feet into the sky
And as they crossed the moon, I saw them laughing in his sleigh
His big white bag of toys just left me blues to play
It happened all so quick, my baby fell for ol' St. Nick
Maybe it’s because he smokes a pipe, like high society men do
Or perhaps I’m just not the jolly type, but baby I can learn to make kids smile
too
I write the North Pole every day for her
But she don’t seem to hear the lonely cries of a lost reindeer
She only hears the sound of elves and year-round christmas cheer
It happened all so quick, my baby fell for ol' St. Nick
Oh, maybe it’s because he smokes a pipe, like high society men do
Or perhaps I’m just not the jolly type, but baby I can learn to make kids smile
too
She was all mine Christmas Eve last year
When he came along, he had this glimmer in his eye
My baby fell for him like stars fall from the sky
It happened all so quick, my baby fell for ol' St. Nick
It happened all so very very quick, my baby fell for ol' St. Nick
