Corvette Christmas
Hope it's not repeat.
Corvette Christmas
Twas the night before Christmas and in the
garage,
There wasn't a trace of a Ford or a Dodge.
The presents were
wrapped and the lights were all lit,
So I figured I'd mess with the Corvette
for a bit.
I popped the release and I lifted the hood,
When a
deep voice behind me said "looks pretty good."
Well, as you can imagine, I
turned mighty quick,
And there, by the workbench, stood good old Saint
Nick!
We stood there a bit, not too sure what to say,
Then he
said "don't suppose that you'd trade for my sleigh?
I said "no way, Santa"
and started to grin,
"But if you've got the time we could go for a
spin!"
His round little mouth, all tied up like a bow,
Turned
into a smile and he said "Hey! Let's go!!"
So as not to disturb all the
neighbors retreat,
We pushed the Corvette quietly into the
street,
Then, taking our places to drift down the hill,
I turned
on the key and I let the clutch spill.
The sound that erupted took him by
surprise,
But he liked it a lot, by the look in his eyes.
With
Goodyears a cryin and side pipes aglow,
We headed on out to where the hot
rodders go.
And Santa's grin widened, approaching his ears,
With every
shift up as I went through the gears.
Then he yelled, "can't recall
when I've felt so alive!"
So I backed off the gas and said, "you wanna
drive?"
Old Santa was stunned when I tossed him the keys,
When he walked
past the headlights he shook at the knees!
Then the small block
exploded with side exhaust sound!
Santa let out the clutch and the tires
shook the ground!
Power shift into second, again into third!
I sat there
just watching, at loss for a word,
Then I heard him exclaim as we
blasted from sight,
"Merry Christmas to all, it's a hell of a night!!!"
Merry Christmas to all...
Thanks for all the help and entertainment.
