Well, a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Was born to Mary and Joseph the great I Am
And they sang that Christmas morn
"Ooh, a Savior has been born"
And it happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Well, a long time ago when a-wise men roamed the land
They saw a shiny star above the desert sand
Well, they hopped them camels at night and they rode by the pale moonlight
And it happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Well it happened a long
Ooh, a long
I said a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Oh, and they sang that Christmas morn
"Ooh, a Savior has been born"
And it happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
King Herod learned a lesson
He learned it real hard
You just don't mess with the Son of God
Well, a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
I said a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Well, the demons they cried
They moaned and wailed
Their kingdom got set back on its tail
Well, a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Well, a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Well, it happened a long
Ooh, a long
I said a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Oh, and they sang that Christmas morn
"Ooh, the Savior has been born"
And it happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Said it happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
Well, it happened a long time ago in a land called Bethlehem
