Twas' The Night Before Christmas in Pocomoke City

Twas' the night before Christmas

And throughout Worcester County

Children were snug in their beds

Awaiting Santa's good bounty.

The Eastern Shore hour was late

When all should be sleeping.

But to no one's surprise

Some sure were peeping.

The jolly ol' elf isn't far away

They all knew.

Maybe he's in Accomack, Somerset,

Or Wicomico, too.

They hoped that with decorations

Making everything pretty,

Santa certainly would visit

Pocomoke City!

Then from Second Street Extended

To Stockton Road,

Santa's sleigh was spotted

With all its good load.

And from the river bridges

To the Virginia line,

He made all his stops

Hoping to make everything fine.

All the children were sure

That when they awoke,

They would find good things

Left by Santa in Pocomoke!
