White Christmas in Houston? Not Likely

I heard this cute song on the radio and thought I'd share the lyrics. So cute and so true! I've spent more than one Christmas here growing up on Galveston island and in the Houston area wearing SHORTS! I found the lyrics at christianoriginals.com. Enjoy. And if you have snow, savor it while it lasts...there's nothing like sweatin' on Christmas day ;-).
Merry Christmas y'all.

White Christmases In Houston
song lyrics from the album Merry Christmas by Branded

If you dream of horse-drawn carriages
Dashing through the snow;
Before you move to Texas
There's something you should know...

That they don't have White Christmases in Houston.
I've lived here most my life and I should know.
I've prayed and I've pleaded for way too many years
But they just don't have White Christmases down here.

I've heard of winter carnivals in Aspen.
It looks just like a winter wonderland.
But remember while you're freezin' throughout this Christmas season
We'll be down here with Christmas cheer and flip-flops in the sand.

I've seen all those Christmas shows on TV.
Blankets of white powder; my, how grand!
But while you've got snow and holly, I'm feastin' on tamales;
Sittin' on my back porch with an iced tea in my hand.

That they don't have White Christmases in Houston.
I've lived here most my life and I should know.
I've prayed and I've pleaded for way too many years
But they just don't have White Christmases down here.
