Santa's On The Way

Sung to the tune of Surfin' USA 12/15/23 Well, all the reindeer are hustlin’ they’re really on the move And even Rudolph is bustlin’, he’s really in the groove They know the presents are waiting, they gotta make Christmas day The kids are anticipating and Santa’s on the way They just left Merry Olde England, they’re off to see Singapore Around the world they are jinglin’ they’re headed now to your shore Up on the rooftops, they run now They step as if to say Get ready for all the fun now Cause Santa’s on the way Santa, Santa’s on the way Santa, Santa’s here to stay

I like the way you greatly indented the 2nd, 4th, 6th etc line in this song. It really helps me "hear the tune" and sing it. Congrats!

a delightful lyric poem, Mike! I found myself singing it to myself using "Surfing USA." That's creative on your part. Have a splendid holiday season, Sara
