Christmas Can't Be Far Away

Christmas can't be far away

A neighbor tipped his hat to me this morning

The landlord even smiled and said good day

And I want you to know a stranger said hello

Christmas can't be far away

Old tightwad down the street is buying candy

To pass out to the neighbor kids at play

The town is on the go

The weather man says snow

Christmas can't be far away

The small fry on the block have all be saving

And now they're hiding things and looking sly

Mom will get that do-dad she's been craving

And Dad will get his usual Christmas tie

Both young and old are planning sweet surprises

They'll soon be tied with ribbons bright and gay

Goodwill is in the air

You can feel it everywhere

Christmas can't be far away

Christmas can't be far away

Christmas can't be far away
