Christmas Can't Be Far Away Lyrics - Eddy Arnold

Christmas can't be far away 

A neighbour tipped his hat to me this mornin' 

The landlord even smiled and said good-day 

And I want you to know a stranger said hello 

Christmas can't be far away 

Old tight wad down the street is buying candy 

To pass out to the neighbor kids at play 

The town is on the go 

The weather man said snow 

Christmas can't be far away 

The small fry on our block have all been saving 

And now their hiding things and looking sly 

Mum will get that doodad she's been craving 

And Dad'll get his usual Christmas tie 

Both young and old are planning sweet surprises 

They'll soon be tied with ribbons bright and gay 

Good will is in the air 

You feel it everywhere 

Christmas can't be far away 

Christmas can't be far away
