Well, a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem.

Was born to Mary and Joseph the Great I Am.

How they sang that Christmas morn:
|
|
"The Savior has been born!"
|
|
It happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem.
|
|
Well, a long time ago when the Wise Men roamed the land.
|
|
They saw a shining star above the desert sand;
|
|
Well, they hopped on their camels that night
|
|
and they rode by the pale moonlight,
|
|
It happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem.
|
|
Well, it happened a long, I said a long, well, a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem.
|

the kingdom got set back on it's tail.
