Lyrics
Merry Southern Christmas
By Vicky Smith & Jon Statham
VERSE 1:
We don't need sleighs or snowmen to make the season bright.
We don't even need a Winter coat or Christmas to be white.
We're happy we can just wear shorts to cook our barbeque.
We don't even need that hot chocolate - an ice cold beer will do.
VERSE 2:
You can have your icy streets and roads, I'll pass on those as well.
From what I'm seein' on the news it must be cold as hell!
I'd rather be on my lawn chair waitin' in the sun for me.
And fill up my plate - it's December 8th
So let's decorate that tree!
CHORUS
It's a Merry Southern Christmas
When it's 80 in the shade
You can keep all of that snow up north
Wouldn't even want to trade
Well, Merry Southern Christmas
Don't you feel like you've been played?
Well lookey here - No snow again today
VERSE 3:
It's time to get out the lotion
and soak up all those rays.
I got my shades and my cooler's full
Of beer and hard lemonade
I can smell that brisket cooking (oh Lord) and there's sausage in the back.
We'll have some watermelon for dessert
It just don't get better than that.
Bridge:
I won't be shoveling snow today
Just sunshine in these southern states
And this batch of Margaritas are the best I ever made
Solo
CHORUS
It's a Merry Southern Christmas
All sunny day
