Lyrics
SANTA?S STORY
Many years ago, lived a very special man
Saint Nicholas was his name
That very special man, had a very special plan
To bring joy to children everywhere
CHORUS
And now he?s known as Santa Claus
By children all over the world
With his long white beard and coat of red
And a laugh that will make you smile
Now every Christmas Eve, when the children are asleep
Santa fills his sack with gifts and toys
Then flying through the air, in his sleigh with his reindeer
He delivers to all the girls and boys
CHORUS
When you wake on Christmas day, and see the gifts beneath the tree
Spare a thought for Santa Claus and his reindeer
They?ve all worked very hard, through the night until the dawn
But they?ll be back again same time next year
CHORUS
