THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS



SWEET JESUS IS COMIN'
TO SAVE EVERY SOUL
THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS
THE SILVER BELLS TOLL
THE CHILDREN ARE SLEEPING
THE FIRE IS LOW
THE NORTH STAR IS BLAZING
WITH A LIGHT FALLING SNOW

DECEMBER REMEMBER
THE LAST SIXTY YEARS
WITH ALL OF OUR LAUGHTER
AND SOME OF OUR TEARS
THE TREES AND THE LIGHTS
WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS
WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE
WHERE WILL IT END

NOW I AM OLDER
AND LIFE TOOK IT'S TOLL
I'M PAYIN' A PRICE
FOR THE GOOD TIMES I STOLE
I STARE OUT THE WINDOW
UNTIL I AM NUMB
MY SOULS NOT WORTH SAVIN'
AND JESUS WON'T COME
