Clear the bed, trim the tree
I'll be home by Christmas eve
the evening start will light my way
I'll see you there before Christmas day
Stoke the coals, to warm yourself
and drink a toast to all our health
I'll brave the snow to get to you
with a touch of gold and something new
Ring the bells and sing the songs
I'll be back home before too long
when the days grow short, and the new year looms
I'll head back home, to be with you.

When I was a little lad
at Christmas time what fun I had
Presents piled around the tree
and most of them were there for me
I got a bike from uncle mike
I got a hat from brother pat
I got a sled from cousin Fred,
but it don't know much here in Arizona
But my sister sister sister is a ho ho ho
a ho ho ho
a ho ho ho
my sister sister sister is a ho ho ho
cause she didn't get me nothin' for Christmas
Grandpa Bert got me a shirt
and Granny Nance got matching pants
Uncle Lou gave me some shoes
with a note that says if they're too big just put some extra socks on.
But my sister sister sister is a ho ho ho
a ho ho ho
a ho ho ho
my sister sister sister is a ho ho ho
cause she didn't get me nothin' for Christmas
What a dirty cheap scape
I knowed she won't gonna give me nothin'
She never gave me nothin' but a black eye.
But I got her back
I didn't get her nothin' neither.
But my sister sister sister is a ho ho ho
a ho ho ho
a ho ho ho
my sister sister sister is a ho ho ho
cause she didn't get me nothin'
she never gets me nothing
she didn't get me nothin' for Christmas.
