We've got our little fingers workin' hard
On the trains and dolls and cars
Hurryin' 'cuz Santa's a-waitin'
Soldiers marchin' out the door
Carryin' the toys galore
For Santa's reindeer ride

This is more than just another reindeer ride
Not a practice run in July
We've got to load up all the festive gear
Peace, and hope, and yuletide cheer
For Santa's reindeer ride

Polish the runners, shine Rudolph's nose
Tighten the harness, brush off the snow
We'd love to sing our little working songs,
Wish that we could tag along
Just to see the children's faces
Tonight the world is filled with joy,
Deeper than the games and toys
It's time to load up the sleigh.
Tonight the world is filled with joy,
Deeper than the games and toys
It's time to load up the sleigh. (It's time to load up the sleigh).
For Santa's reindeer ride.
