sedan stannade jag
en halvannan minut

framför skylten

röda spritpennan

och skrev
på uppfarten

I picked out a tree
And I tied it to the car
There\'s a wreath
up on this door
Eight tiny reindeer
in the yard
I drove under
the downtown lights
Red and green and blue
The silver neon snowflakes
made me think of
somekind of you
It\'s Christmas all around
You\'re in someone else\'s land
So I\'m sending out
my only wish
Hey Santa tell the man

CHORUS

Hey mister
send my baby home
This December I don\'t want him
to be all alone
Oh Christmas in America
I need him in your arms
Far away from harm
Mister send my baby home

I hear someone
singing jingle bells
No wait that deck the halls
And the teenagers
with candy canes
Ramble through the malls
The girls are down at Ruby\'s
Trying to find
some Christmas cheer
There\'s not much to do
but drink too much
When everyday\'s unclear
So here I was
on Christmas eve

This silent holy night
And I reach up to the stars for you
And I pray that you\'re alright

Oh goodbye all ye faithful
It\'s time to think again

That one is
for you alone
