The Cowboy Whole Stole Christmas

It was Christmas Eve in a little Texas town

When Santa’s sleigh came tumbling down

Right behind the old Lone Star Saloon

At about ten minutes after half past noon Now I wasn’t looking

for trouble that day I was just riding home when I saw

that sleigh

Eight reindeer standing beside the road

And Santa yelling, “Somebody help me with this load!”

I didn’t mean to steal Christmas

It just kinda happened that way

I borrowed a sleigh,

I borrowed some reindeer And I borrowed Santa’s big red bag that

day

I swear I was gonna bring it back

Before the night was through

But things got complicated Like Christmas things tend to do

Well, Santa had a flat

and his GPS died

And Rudolph refused to go another mile

So I said, “Santa,

you just sit right there

I’ll get these presents delivered,

I swear”

He said, “Cowboy, you don’t know where they go!”

I said, “How hard can Christmas really be?”

He handed me the list

and climbed into my truck And that’s when I knew I was

in way too deep

We flew over rooftops We bounced across fields

We lost three presents And one of the wheels

Santa was yelling The reindeer were mad

And I was beginning to think

This might be

the worst Christmas I’d ever had

I didn’t mean to steal Christmas

It just kinda happened that way

I borrowed a sleigh,

I borrowed some reindeer And somehow I saved Christmas Day

I swear I’ll never do it again

Well… at least that’s what I said

But Santa left a job application

Underneath my bed

And every Christmas Eve at midnight

I hear bells up in the sky

And somewhere way above the Texas plains

I hear Santa yell…

“Cowboy!

You still owe me a wheel!” (hahaha)
