CHRISTMAS REBORN

My hearts throbbin' like 1t used to, old
tunes play along its strings
At the thought OF Christmas comm and
the thought Of Christmas things
And the thought of little children climbin
out of little beds
With the Christmas candles THROWN gold
en- glory on their heads.
And a-standin like I've seen them all
about the Christmas tree;
There is memories a-plenty comes aions
the years to me.
But no memories are sweeter than the
memories that come
OF the fur-off Christmas mornin's and the
children with their drums
Little children tippytoein' down the stairs
in nighties white,
Then a sudden rush an catter, and a
squealin' of delight
When they see the tree a-standin' in the
crispy Christmas dawn.
And a look has made them certain that
old Santa Claus is gone
For although they write to Santa tellin'
what they'd like to get
They are always sort of skeered that they
will find him there till yet
When they're gettin' up so early, so they
give squeal to see
That he's got his work all finished and
has left the Christmas tree.
Children late years amt been gettin' all
they writ him for
For his work was interfered with by the
horrors of the war:
But the war is done and ended, and we've
got to rise and go
All the gaits for this here Christmas that
we ever used to know;
Got to do our shoppln early, and enough
for years gone by;
Got to bring back Santa Claus and get
the Christmas tree, an try
To forget that there was hatred in the
world, an grief and tears:
Got to do our shoppin' now and brighten
up the comm years.
