A Beatles Christmas

 

A Beatles Christmas

Cassie loved the Beatles, she thought they were grand

Abbey Road, Magical Mystery Tour, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

She imagined herself, as one of the screaming girls in the crowd

She knew each song very well, and would sing them out loud

It was one Christmas, her family was gathered at night

What could Santa get her? She smiled with delight

Well, I don't have “Rubber Soul” or “Revolver” yet”

She wanted them all, so she could complete her set


It'll take time, before she had them all

She really loved John, Ringo, George, and Paul

She was so thankful, to love music like she did

She's been singing these songs, since she was a little kid

Now she is ten, and just starting out

As she sang out a verse of “Twist And Shout”

She first heard them on the radio

That's how she knew them so


Christmas Eve came, she was so excited to know

Santa was coming, with his “Ho! Ho! Ho!”

She hoped, that the Beatles music would be in his sack

She wanted it so badly, she sang out “Get Back”

On Christmas Day, the gifts from Santa were there

She stood there staring, and playing with her hair

Then she saw a wrapped gift, with her name on the top

That must have come all the way, from Santa's workshop


She opened the present, and jumped so very high

Rubber Soul,” “Revolver,” and “Let It Be” caught her eye

Yes!” she screamed so very loud

Feeling just like the girls in the crowd

Her Christmas this year, was the best it could be

For the Beatles came through, under the tree


Several days before Christmas, Santa was thinking

Listening to The Beatles, and Egg Nog he was drinking

He always liked the Beatles, and listened to them each year

He was happy to bring one little girl, some Christmas Cheer
