Oh, it was Christmas Eve
|
Me and my cousin Steve
|
Were pulling an all-nighter
|
Our parents were gone
|
We thought it would be swift
|
To catch them with the gifts
|
And prove that all their stories
|
Of Santa were wrong
|
|
|
We played my dad's LPs
|
Of polka melodies
|
And danced around
|
until we collapsed on the couch
|
Then up on the roof
|
I heard the sound of hooves
|
And downward through
|
The chimney came the real living proof
|
|
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
Santa don't get cold
|
When he's dances at the old North Pole-ka
|
He does a polka
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
Santa's got to hop
|
Because he's got to make
|
A lot of stops on Christmas Eve
|
|
|
He did a polka hop
|
Across the room and stopped
|
In front of Daddy's hi-fi with gifts in his hand
|
He saw the phonograph
|
Turned round to us and laughed
|
Let's see, what have
|
I got for these young polka fans
|
|
|
He set them in a heap
|
But Steve was fast asleep
|
He still thinks Uncle John bought
|
his new saxophone
|
I won't be so naive
|
to ever disbelieve
|
'Cause I'm playing the accordion
|
I got that Christmas Eve
|
|
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
Santa's jumping
|
Jiminy up-through-the-chimney polka
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
It's Santa's Polka
|
Santa's got to hop because he's got to
|
Make a lot of stops on Christmas Eve
|
|
|
Hop-step-step to the left
|
Hop-step-step to the right
|
A merry Christmas to you all
|
And to you all a good night
|
