CHILD OF WINTER (CHRISTMAS SONG) 
(Steve Kalinich / Brian Wilson)

The Beach Boys - 1974

A child of winter, a child of the snow
I'm making a snowball that someone will throw
I'm making a snowman with charcoal for the eyes
A scarf draped in red and a derby on his head

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus lane
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Are pulling on the reins
Bells are ringing, children singing
All is merry and bright
Hang your stockings and say your prayers
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

The eve of christmas, presents have been passed
The wood in the fireplace is glowing it's last
I'm closing my eyes now, in my bed I'm snuggling
Outside my window the carolers sing

Christmas comes and the snow covers all
Trees are decorated with tinsel and lights
Mama's in the kitchen making cookies and bread
The children are hungry, they're waiting to be fed

A child of Christmas, a child of snow
A wonderful feeling underneath the mistletoe
And may your Christmas last all year
With laughter of children, peace and cheer

A child of Christmas, a child of snow
A wonderful feeling underneath the mistletoe
Merry Christmas to you
Ding dong ding go the bells
Ding dong ding go the bells
Ding dong ding go the bells
Ding dong ding go the bells
Ding dong ding go the bells
