Christmas In A Mining Town/With Sleigh Bells Poem by Paul Henry Dallaire

Chorus:
Now there's a town where I was born
In Northeastern Ontario
A place we love to celebrate
Little baby Jesus and his birthday

The Eastern star the Shepherds quake
Angels in the snow the children make
Indian summer's o'er the great Pumpkin's gone
It's Christmas time in my home town

Verses:
Friends and families congregate
Popcorn balls and X-Mas cake
The church bazaar and the food bank drive
Making sure no one is left behind

The shopping list at the Timmins Square
Little Dorothy wants a cuddly Teddy Bear
Santa's there to grant your wish
Oh! what a special time of year this is

Toddlers write letters to Santa Claus
Rudolph's nose is lighting up
For that great sleigh ride across the sky
Children hush now don't you cry
End
