Grateful For Christmas

Well, we'd all had to wake up
For the birth of our
LordMy folks and my brother in an '82
FordWe pulled in a drive-way filled up with cars
Old aunts and old uncles,
Lord, I see stars
Then we'd run to the kitchen
You know kids and their games
Play fetch with old buster
Call each other names
And Paddie be singin'
While supper was cooking
We'd unwrap the gifts
When no one was lookin'
Let's all gather 'round
Grandpa will say the blessing
Aunt Jane , she fell asleep
Mary Kay burned the dressing
But we got all of our friends and family here
And now I'm grateful for
Christmas this year
Well, this year we' re in
Houston, let's all get together
Man, I almost saw snow, can you believe this weather
Who's gonna be here, uncle
Frank can't make it
Since Grandpa died ,
I don't know, if man,
I can take it
Well, there's presents and sweater
And the pie don't taste right
And dad and the
TV are starting to fight
I wish I had a drink or maybe a dozen
Lord, what
I'd give for one good looking cousin
So let's all gather around
Dad, you say the blessing
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep
Mary Kay forgot the dressing
But got all of our friends and family here
And now I'm grateful for
Christmas this year
Hey mom, how you doin'?
Yeah, I miss him too
No, all the
Christmas lights don't make your hair look blue
The cousins ain't coming and
John's overseas
And guess my wife loves her folks more than me
But the ladies from the church said they might stop by
I brought you this picture, oh mama, don't cry
Let's play cards and watch some news channel
I love you too, thanks for the [Incomprehensible]
So let's all gather around
I guess I'll say the blessing
Aunt Jane, she fell asleep
And I never cared for dressin'
But we got all of our friends and family here
And now I' m grateful for
Christmas this year
Oh, I'm grateful for
Christmas this year
