Layin' back in my easy chair

Late last Christmas eve

Silent night, twinkling lights

Presents 'round the tree

I heard my little girl's two bare feet

Comin' down the stairs

She was sad as I looked over

Draggin' her teddy bear

She said, now daddy, I had a dream

A little angel came down to me

She wasn't happy like angels ought to be

She was cryin' when she gave me the message

For all the world to hear

You know that Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus

Sometimes this time of year

So, with her head on my shoulder

And her tears mixed with mine

I thought how little baby Jesus

Gets left out at Christmas time

It ain't about the money

Oh, money can't buy love

And I saw the light that Christmas night

With help from up above

She said, now daddy, I had a dream

A little angel came down to me

She wasn't happy like angels ought to be

She was cryin' when she gave me the message

For all the world to hear

You know that Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus

Sometimes this time of year

She said that Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus

Sometimes this time of year
