Somewhere Hovering Over Indiana

Ralphie, are you asleep?

No, are you?

I don't think so

I toss and turn, turn and toss again

Hear the clock, tick a tock it goes

So, slow legs criss and cross again

Count a billion sheep but I still can't sleep

Right when I'm gonna bust

Flip flop and readjust

Can't go to bed, instead my mind begins to race

Something's taking place

Every year I wake up to hear him go ho, ho-ho

'Cause I know somewhere hovering over Indiana

Santa's covering ground with lightening speed

High above the town, flying down

Better catch him quick, old Saint Nick

Maybe still in Evansville

Or somewhere hovering over Indiana

Across the whole state and straight to me

I tried real hard to be good this year

But I made a mistake or two

Or twelve

He understood this year, right?

When I lost my hat, when I killed my cat

Please let my name exist

Far from the naughty list

I would be twice as nice if he would just unpack

Something from the sack

Something better than just a sweater for me

We'll see

He might be somewhere hovering over Indiana

Santa's covering ground and gaining speed

High above the town, flying down

On a reindeer flight through the night

Zooming into Bloomington

Somewhere hovering over Indiana

Across the whole state and straight to me

He'll come swerving down the hill

Catch the curb around the mill

Maybe skate on the branches of the trees

You might spot him in the fields

Careful not to hit Miss Shield

Hurry through the flurry and get here pretty please

Pretty please

He's somewhere hovering over Indiana

Across the whole state

Across the whole state

And straight to me

Somewhere hovering over Indiana

To me
