'Twas three days after Christmas, nearing the year's end,
When a young man got shnuggly, and phoned his old friend;
Though fate had come crashing into their festive plans,
They still had each other, and a six pack of cans.
One day every week, all through the uncertain year,
The great distance between them seemed to disappear;
And for that one blissful hour, they knew only joy,
Two men, a horse, and their messenger boy.
