'Twas The Year Before Christmas (1995)

'Twas the year before Christmas

Nineteen Ninety-Five...

The year was a long one,

But I'm still alive.

I really like Texas

And Dallas is great.

All the people say "Howdy!"

And the steaks are top-rate.

I am still working

For Image Sciences, Inc.

It's fast-paced and hectic

But worth it, I think.

I got a promotion

Into Sales Support.

The job is exciting

I'm glad to report.

I'm traveling a lot,

Just about every week.

Doing laundry on weekends

When my clothes start to reek!

Spent some time up in Vail

With Beth and my Jeep.

Went off-road and had fun,

But the trip wasn't cheap!

I'll be home in December

To relax and hang out

With my family and friends.

That's what Christmas is about.

I can't wait for Mom's cookies

Or to see Ralph and Jo.

And if I'm real lucky,

We may get some snow!

Have a wonderful season

And a happy new year.

If you're in Dayton when I am,

Let's go have a beer!
