I Won't Decorate Your Christmas Tree

(album: A Country Christmas - 1966)

Well I wrote to Santa just today I told him I don't plan to stay
Cause you've been bad yes you've been treating me wrong
So listen to me here's Christmas cheers because you won't be with me here
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year
You can stay out there to toast and cheer with all of your friends
Don't hang on me a being here when you come back again
Your bags are burnt out and your fancy don't shine I just won't be a waiting this time
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year
[ guitar ]
Well I won't be here this Christmas Day I wouldn't give a present anyway
But have a good time and be concerned about me
I'm going back to my mom and dad they love me more than you ever had
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year
You can stay out there...
No I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year
