Christmas time is coming here

And I'm running late

I had a little too much fun

And I can't see straight

Couldn't find my ticket

And I missed my train

Got back on the telephone

Tried to catch a plane

If I don't make it

We're headed for a fight

Get me back home

Before Christmas night. Oh yeah...

Come on baby don't be mad

I know the way you feel

Stuck out on the motorway

And the weather's unreal

My ride's gone and broke down

On the interstate

Jogging to the truck stop

Gonna hitch a way

If I don't make it

We're headed for a fight

Get me back home

Before Christmas night. Oh yeah...

Christmas time is finally here

As I walk up the stairs

I open up the bedroom door

And my baby ain't there!

Went to see my neighbor

Tell me: Where did she go?

He said she waited 'round all night for you

I think she left with Joe!

I'm headed for the pub

I'm getting in a fight

I don't care if it's

Christmas night. Oh yeah...
