Getting Ready For Christmas Day

(álbum: A Merrie Christmas To You - 2014)

From early in November to the last week of December
I got money matters weighing me down
Oh the music may be merry, it's only temporary
I know Santa Claus is coming to town
In the days I work my day job, in the nights I work my night
But it all comes down to working man's pay

I'm getting ready, I'm getting ready, ready for Christmas Day
Hey

I got a nephew in Iraq, it's his third time back
But it's ending up the way it began
With the luck of a beginner, he'll be eating turkey dinner
On a mountain top in Pakistan

I'm getting ready, oh, I'm getting ready
For the power and the glory and the story of Christmas Day
Oh

I'm getting ready, oh, I'm getting ready
For the power and the glory and the story of Christmas Day

If I could tell my Mom and Dad about the things we never had
It never mattered, we were always okay
I'm getting ready, I'm getting ready, I'm getting ready for Christmas Day

I'm getting ready, oh, I'm getting ready
For the power and the glory and the story of Christmas Day
Oh

I'm getting ready, oh, I'm getting ready
For the power and the glory and the story of Christmas Day
I'm getting ready, oh, I'm getting ready
For the power and the glory and the story of Christmas Day
For the power and the glory and the story of Christmas Day
