When we were only just so high
We sat on Santa's knee
With a very long list of special gifts to deliver on Xmas eve
Then early Xmas morning we'd open all our toys
Snowflakes fallin', mama's callin', wake up girls and boys
It was so very long ago, but it's like yesterday to me
When were kids at Xmas
When were kids at Xmas
Can you remember, late December 1958
Beneath the tree a hoola hoop, your very first roller skates
Stockings filled with chocolate kisses, green and red jellybeans
Chipmunk songs, pa rum pum pum pums and starlit Xmas dreams
I can see us singin' carols close together by the tree
When we were kids at Xmas
When we were kids at Xmas
And even now don't you love the lights that glow
Don't you get excited, when it starts to snow
It'll always be a thrill finding gifts under the tree
Xmas magic lives in the hearts of kids
Big kids like you and me
Those snowball fights in front of school, our faces rosy red
Goin' to the park with friends to race our brand-new sled
Walkin' along with Mom and Dad, knee-deep in snow
On our way to the music hall to see the Xmas show
Those treasured times we used to have are in our memory
When we were kids at Xmas
When we were kids at Xmas
