Crossfire Christmas Eve
Christmas Eve Crossfire....................
'Twas the night before Christmas and in the garage
there wasn't a trace of a ford or a dodge
the presents were wrapped and the lights were all lit
so i figured I'd mess with the crossfire a bit !
I popped the release and i lifted the hood
when a deep voice behind me said "looks pretty good."
well, as you can imagine, i turned mighty quick
and there, by the workbench, stood good ol saint nick !
we stood there a bit, not too sure what to say
then he said "don't suppose that you'd trade for my sleigh ?"
I said "no way, Santa" and started to grin,
"but if you've got the time we could go for a spin !"
his round little mouth, all tied up like a bow,
turned into a smile and he said "hey! Let's go !!"
So as not to disturb all the neighbors' retreat
we pushed the crossfire quietly onto the street
then, taking our places to drift down the hill,
I turned on the key and i let the clutch spill
the sound that erupted took him by surprise
he liked it a lot................ By the look in his eyes.
With the Michelin's a'cryin' and the exhaust all aglow
we headed on out where the hot rodders go
and Santa's grin widened, approaching his ears,
with every shift up as i went through the gears.
Then he yelled "can't recall when I've felt so alive !"
so i backed off the gas and said "you wanna drive ?"
Ol Santa was stunned when i gave him the keys
when he walked past the headlights he shook at the knees !
The dual exhaust exploded with a loud gruff sound !
Santa let out the clutch and the torque shook the ground !
power shift into second, and again into third !
I sat there just watching, at a loss for a word
then i heard him exclaim as we blasted from sight
"Merry Christmas to all,............'
it's a hell of a good night !!!"
