| Lyrics: | North pole’s cold but the elves are rockin’ Making little toys to stuff the stockings Better behave so Santa comes knockin’ When his sleigh is near Snow’s piled up but the kids are playin’ Made their wish list now they’re all prayin’ Santa will bring what they’re all saying They want underneath the tree We end the year with Christmas cheer Wish it was all year long Glasses toasting, chestnuts roasting Carols make you sing along Tree goes up with cookies bakin’ Camera comes out for picture takin’ Of memories that we’re all makin’ At this joyful time We end the year with Christmas cheer Wish it was all year long Glasses toasting, chestnuts roasting Carols make you sing along Solos We end the year with Christmas cheer Wish it was all year long Glasses raising, people praising Carols make you sing along Late at night the kids start sneakin’ Out of bed, in hopes of peakin’ At Saint Nick when he is bringin’ His big ‘ol bag of toys Repeat Chorus 2x |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
