Pine trees whisper in the breeze

Fireflies glow when day is done

Crickets hum their evening song

And call out Merry Christmas everyone

Santa rides a horse down here

Kids come running when they hear his call

Neighbors wave from passing trucks

Their smiles saying God bless you all

πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„

Hushed creeks shimmer under stars

Owls keep watch from branches high

A chorus rises from the woods

Like nature's Christmas lullaby

πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„

The smell of brisket fills the air

the heat turned down real low

Cooking it up with grateful hearts

In that East Texas way we know

πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„

The Lone Star sky glows soft tonight

Our lights shine bright for one and all

We send our love from Texas to your home

Wishing Merry Christmas to y’all.
