Excerpt from The Complete Works of James Whitcomb Riley, Vol. 5 of 10 What "Old Santa" Overheard 'Tis said old Santa Claus one time Told this joke on himself in rime: One Christmas in the early din That ever leads the morning in, I heard the happy children shout In rapture at the toys turned out Of bulging little socks and shoes - A joy at which I could but choose To listen enviously, because I'm always just "Old Santa Claus." But ere my rising sigh had got To its first quaver of the thought, It broke in laughter as I heard A little voice chirp like a bird - "Old Santa's mighty good, I know, And awful rich - and he can go Down ever' chimbly anywhere In all the world! - But I don't care. I wouldn't trade with him, and be Old Santa Claus, and him be me, Fer all his toys and things - and I Know why and bet you he knows why ! - They wuz no Santa Claus when he Wuz ist a little boy like me!"
