Strait George - Old Time Christmas lyrics

(Aaron Barker/John Jarvis)

Tricycles, Bicycles

Candy canes and candlelight

Tryin’ to stay awake all night

To catch a glimpse of Santa’s reindeer

Mama bakin’, sister makin’

Angels in the fallin’ snow

Now it seems so long ago

I wish they all were here

We’d have an old time Christmas

An old time Christmas

Just like the ones from yesterday

We’d leave the world behind us

Let the spirit find us

And have an old time Christmas

For old times sake

Friends singin’, bells ringin’

Snowman standing in the yard

It’s a living Christmas card

Captured in our hearts forever

Friends scatter, it’s won’t matter

The magic never melts away

It only takes a Christmas Day

To make it reappear

We’d have an old time Christmas

An old time Christmas

Just like the ones from yesterday

We’d leave the world behind us

Let the spirit find us

And have an old time Christmas

For old times sake

So leave the world behind you

Let the spirit find you

And have an old time Christmas

For old times sake
