T’was the night before Christmas, and all through the land
Was not a skier nor jumper, on the lake we could stand

All frozen and cold, with ice inches thick
I stared and I wondered, about ole Saint Nick

I’d asked for some presents, a vest and some ski’s
New ropes and some gloves, and braces for my knees

When all of a sudden, I heard such a clatter
I stopped waxing the boat, to see what was the matter

I ran to the window, and what do I see
But a Mastercraft sleigh, full of ropes and of ski’s

And a jolly old man, with his sack full of toys
He came down the chimney, bringing hope bringing joy

He filled all the stockings, with handles and gloves
He left ski’s he left bindings, and the vest that I love

And with a twinkle in his eye, he put his hand to his nose
With a world record leap, up the chimney he rose

Now Dasher now Dancer, now Prancer and Vixen
On Comet on Cupid, hit it Donder and Blitzen

Off the top of the jump, and around the six ball
Dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!

Up into the sky, like a jumper he flew
Bringing hope bringing joy, for the next season anew

He called out to all, as he flew through the night
Merry Christmas to all, keep the rope nice and tight.
