TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS, AND ALL THROUGH THE NORTHWEST, US HAULERS ARE DRIVING, DOING OUR BEST
THE HORSES ARE STANDING, SAFE IN THEIR STALLS, AS HAULERS WE’RE FOCUSED, IGNORING THE CALLS
THE HIGHWAYS WE TRAVEL, ARE COVERED IN SNOW, BUT WE CAREFULLY PUSH ON, NEEDING TO STAY ON THE GO
THE STEEP MOUNTAIN PASSES ARE TREACHEROUS AT BEST, SO CHAINS ARE A MUST, TO GET THROUGH THIS MESS!
THE TRAFFIC IS BUSY, WE’RE LOSING LIGHT FAST,
BUT OUR LAYOVER IS CLOSE, JUST OVER THE PASS!
WE FINALLY ROLL IN, NEAR THE EDGE OF THE TOWN,
RELIEF! WE MADE IT HERE SAFE AND SOUND.
THE HORSES NOW NESTLED, SAFE IN THEIR PENS,
AND NEXT MONTH, WE’LL START ALL OVER AGAIN
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL,
MAY GOD BLESS YOU, GOODNIGHT
