1075 – I’ll Be the Tree

I Want to Be Your Christmas Tree

I want to be your Christmas Tree
and bring you lots of cheer
with presents piling under me
and scattered there and here.

I want to be your Christmas Tree
and lit with splendid lights
to warm your homestead happily
through merry yuletide nights.

I want to be your Christmas Tree
with candy canes and bows
and decorations filling me
so Christmas spirit shows.

I want to be your Christmas Tree
and give your souls a lift,
but that is all you’ll get from me:
I can’t afford a gift.

Thursdays are dog days!
