Christmas bells were ringing, everyone was gay, the children were all singing when I heard a curly top say, oh I wish my mom would marry Santa Claus, then he'd be in the family. I'd like him round you see, to help my mommy decorate the Christmas tree, I wish my mom would marry Santa Claus, then I know he would always stay, and we could always play, with the toys I get on Christmas day, all the year I know he's very busy, shining Rudolph's nose up bright, maybe I could help him keep it shiny, for that very important night, oh I wish my mom would marry Santa Claus, then he'd stay in the family, and it would always be, like Christmas every day for me.
