lyrics

He pulled a stool up to the bar playnin’ bout his job again
He said, " Kids these days they’d rather sit on their ass than run
Got a million elves with hammers and nails
But little Johnny wants a new play station
I hate to admit it but Christmas done lost its fun"

‘tender looks over says what’ll it be
Lookin just like an old friend
Egg nog son, make it as strong as can be
He says You better curb your drinkin
If you wanna go flying tonight
Life ain't fair, surely you can take it from me

Thorns on my head, Holes in my hands
There’s no gas in my pick em up truck
I’m so sick of answering, what would Jesus do
Santa looked up at his new best friend
Amazement in his glossy eyes
Great Scott! He exclaimed I can’t believe it’s you

Were You There?
The day Santa met Jesus
Were you there?
That fateful Christmas eve?
Were you there?
Ain’t no one gonna believe us
Were you there?
At the old Yuletide Tavern

After a moment of shocked hesitation
Old St. Nick posed a question
Pardon my asking, what are you doing here
Dad has a plan for me in the future
Saving mankind again
Til then He left me here serving up beer

Were You There?
The day Santa met Jesus
Were you there?
At Did you have your camera phone?
Were you there?
Ain’t no one gonna believe us
Were you there?
At the old Yuletide Tavern

You’ve got no right to complain
You only work one day a year
You eat milk and cookies the kids leave out for you
St. Nick grinned and nodded his head
Maybe things aren’t so bad
Farewell Jesus I believe I’ve got some work to do

Were You There?
The day Santa met Jesus
Were you there?
When Santa was born again?
Were you there?
Ain’t no one gonna believe us
Were you there?
At the old Yuletide Tavern
