When I was but a youngster Christmas meant one thing
That I'd be getting lots of toys that day
I learned a whole lot different when mother set me down
And taught me to spell Christmas this way
See is for the Christ Child born upon this day H is for Herald Angels in the night
Are means our redeemer I means Israel S is for the stars that shone so bright
(T is for three wise men they who traveled far M is for the manger where he lay)
A's for all he stands for S means shepherds came
And that's why there's a Christmas Day

That's why there's a Christmas Day
