Christmas In America

Well, I picked out a tree

And I tied it to the car

There's a wreath up on our door

Eight tiny reindeer in the yard

I drove under the downtown lights

Red and green and blue

The silver neon snowflakes

Only made me think of you

It's Christmas all around me

You're in someone else's land

So, I'm sendin' out my only wish

Hey, Santa, tell the man

Hey, mister, send my baby home

This December, I don't want to be all alone

Oh, Christmas in America

I need you in my arms

Far away from harm

Send my baby home

I hear someone singin' Jingle Bells

No wait, that's Deck the Halls

While the teenagers with candy canes

Ramble through the malls

The girls are down at Ruby's

Tryin' to find some Christmas cheer

There's not much to do but drink too much

When everyday is unclear

So, here I am on Christmas eve

This silent, holy night

And, I reach up to the stars for you

I pray that you're alright

Hey mister, send my baby home

This December, I don't want to be all alone

Oh, Christmas in America

I need you in my arms

Far away from harm

Mister, send my baby home

What happened to the peace on earth?

All that goodwill toward men

Oh, come on, all ye faithful

It's time to think again

Hey, mister, send my baby home

This December, I don't want to be all alone

Oh, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

Hey, mister, send my baby home, oh-oh

This December, I don't want to be all alone

Send my baby home

Send my baby home

Send my baby home

Send my baby home

C'mon, send my baby home

Send my baby home

Send my baby home

Send my baby home

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, oh-oh

C'mon, c'mon

Yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

Oh-whoa-whoa

Send my baby home

Send my baby home

C'mon, send my baby home

Send my baby home
