Ooh yeah mmmhmmm
Rosie:
i was walking home on christmas eve
the whole neighborhood was fast asleep
the snow was falling, coming down hard
the place looked like a picture post card
Trisha:
and when my house came into view
i noticed something up on the roof
you can't imagine my surprise
when i looked up and realized
Both:
it was santa on the rooftop
and our house was santa's first roof stop
the reindeer were quiet as a mouse
didn't make a sound
santa got ready to make his way down
he had one foot in the chimney
destination our brand new christmas tree
i knew everyone was gonna be shocked
when i told them i saw santa on the rooftop
Trisha:
i tried to get home right away
but i was just a little too late
the gifts were laid out under the tree
but no sign of mr. sc
Rosie:
i ran over to the fireplace
but there was nothing but an empty space
got everybody up out of bed
their eyes opened wide when i said
Both:
it was santa on the rooftop
and our house was santa's first roof stop
the reindeer were quiet as a mouse
didn't make a sound
santa got ready to make his way down
he had one foot in the chimney
destination our brand new christmas tree
i knew everyone was gonna be shocked
when i told them i saw santa on the rooftop
Trisha:
some people think the man's a myth
i had my doubts, i admit
they'll laugh and criticize
when somebody says with that look in their eyes
Both:
