CHRISTMAS IN THE COUNTRY
WELL I’VE NOT BEEN TO NEW YORK CITY
BUT I’VE SEEN IT IN MY DREAMS
AND THOSE CITY STREETS
THEY JUST CAN’T BE BEAT
WITH THESE SNOWBOUND CHRISTMAS TREES
WHEN I FIRST SEEN SANTA’S REINDEER BOOTS
WHEN THEY SEE A TRAFFIC LIGHT
SO IF I GET SNOWED IN SIX FEET DEEP
I KNOW I’LL BE ALRIGHT
(CHORUS)
WELL THERE’S NOT TOO MUCH THAT GOES ON HERE
BUT THAT’S ALRIGHT I KNOW
‘CAUSE I’M JUST AS HAPPY AS I CAN BE
TO WATCH THE FALLING SNOW
AND WERE’RE NOT RICH, BUT I’VE GOT YOU
AND YOU KNOW THAT YOU’VE GOT ME
AND THERE’S NOTHING QUITE LIKE CHRISTMAS IN THE COUNTRY
HO, HO THERE’S NOTHING QUITE LIKE CHRISTMAS IN THE COUNTRY
BUT DON’T GET ME WRONG I’M SO RICH TONIGHT
TO SEE THOSE CITY LIGHTS
BUT THERE’S NOTHING LIKE THE CRACKIN’
AND THE HISSIN’ OF THE FIRE
ON A QUITE CHRISTMAS NIGHT
AND OH YES I’M SURE IT’S QUITE A THRILL
TO GO SEE A CHRISTMAS SHOW
WELL IF YOU HAND ME MY FIDDLE
I’LL PLAY JUST A LITTLE
LET ME ROSEN UP MY BOW
(REPEAT CHORUS)
