Because It's Christmas Time

Writer: Buck Owens

Now is the time for sleigh bells to ring
Now is the time for children to sing
Now is the time to wrap presents we will bring
Because it's Christmas time

Christmas time is a comin'
Santa's not far away
You can almost hear his ho ho ho
And the jingling of his sleigh

Now is the time the Christmas story we will tell
Now is the time Hang your stocking on a nail
Now is the time Let us all sing Jingle Bells
Because it's Christmas time

Now is the time to hang mistletoe
Now is the time to run through the snow
Now is the time to see old Rudolph's nose
Because it's Christmas time

Christmas time is a comin'
Santa's not far away
You can almost hear his ho ho ho
And the jingling of his sleigh

Now is the time the Christmas story we will tell
Now is the time Hang your stocking on a nail
Now is the time Let us all sing Jingle Bells
Because it's Christmas time
