It’s hard to believe

That tonight is Christmas Eve

Wasn’t just yesterday the 4th of July

But, here am I

Putting lights on the tree

Once again, Christmas came too fast for me

All the Barbie dolls

Are extinct in the malls

Oh, my how the time really flies

And here am I

Putting lights on the tree

Once again, Christmas came too fast for me

I think it’s a little late

To be sending out cards

This is all very hard

I need a rest

And what about gifts

I don’t know what to do

Specially 'bout the one

That I hoped to get for you

I’ve got stockings to hang

And I better set up the train

I think that I’m gonna cry

‘Cause here am I

Putting lights on the tree

Once again, Christmas came too fast for me

Once again, Christmas came too fast for me
