"Bethlehem Pa" lyrics

"Bethlehem Pa"

Herod was in the White House
Snow was on the ground
Moses parted the Lehigh
All the way to Allentown
The highway rolled
And a Texaco star showed the way
The day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA

Lions fought with gladiators
The Phillies played the Mets
Doves of peace were perched upon
Steel mill smokestacks
And you are in your curlers
And I was frying eggs
The day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA

Hallelujah, what's it to ya?
Little baby born
In the Keystone State
But He brought the light of Heaven down here on Earth to stay
The day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA

We drove from the Poconos
Three hours to see the king
Stopped off at a Wawa store
To get some gifts to bring
On our knees in Nazareth, at the Motel 6, we prayed
The day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA

And lo and behold, I saw a holy light shine in the dim
Coming from a little run-down shack out by the river bend
And there He lay, my precious Savior, asleep in the hay
The day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA

Hallelujah, what's it to ya?
Little baby born
In the Keystone State
But He brought the light of Heaven down here on Earth to stay
Oh, the day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA
Oh, the day that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, PA
