Lyrics
I got the blues for Christmas, to go along with the reds
I got the blues for Christmas, to go along with the reds
My girlfriend wants a diamond ring-and thats'all she says
I got the blues for Christmas, to go along with the reds, (that's right)
I got the blues for Christmas, to go along with the reds,(ummm)
Yeah-my momma wants a new car-and that's all she says
Well-My Christmas tree is decorated with little twinklee lights
They are blue and red and seem to be doin some kinda- twinkle-twinkle fights
I got the blues for Christmas , to go along with the reds
My baby wants a diamond ring-and that's all she says
(yeah-now talk about it)
Well-I got the blues for Christmas,to go along with the reds
My baby wants a diamond ring-and that's all she says
Well-I got the blues for Christmas, to go along with the reds
My halls are decked out with little santa claus heads
I got the blues for Christmas,
and somewhere I read-that Jesus walked on the *H2o*,
and I believe it too,
Maybe Jesus could walk over to momma's house,
and hand her the keys to a car that is new
I got the blues for Christmas, to go along with the reds,(yeah I do)
and the reason for the season is *Jesus*-
That's what my born again christian friend says
Yeah-I got the bbBlues for ccChristmas, to go along with the reds,
I got the bBlues for Christmas,(ummm) to go along with the reds,
Well I wish you a Happy Christmas#!
Is all I says,(that's what I do)
I got the blues for Christmas
I got the blues for Christmas
They go along with the reds
I got them blues for Christmas
ttTalkin about the bbBlues for Christmas,
Yeah they go along with the reds,
Well baby wants a diamond ring,
and momma wants a car,
and all I got is the blues and a lousy tee shirt-there,
I got a blue one.
