Christmas in the Country

24 Xs on the calendar
The kids say, «Hooray! The big day’s finally here!»
It’s Christmas Eve
They set out Santa’s cookies, just like rehearsed
Look so excited that they just might burst
It’s Christmas Eve
And the kids won’t go to sleep
Woah
It’s Christmastime in the country
Woah
It’s Christmastime
Before dawn, there’s a chill in the air
Head to the tree to see the kids already there
It’s Christmas day
There’s cocoa and pancakes for the family
Loved ones gather all 'round the tree
This Christmas day
Everybody’s got so much to say
Woah
It’s Christmastime in the country
Woah
It’s Christmastime
It’s Christmastime
Slow yodeling
Had no clue what to do for Uncle Bob or Cousin Jean
It’s sure good Santa Claus takes care of everything
This Christmastime
Opening presents, the kids are sure glad
But those kids are the best gift we ever could have
This Christmastime
We’re gonna count our blessings tonight
Woah
It’s Christmastime in the country
Woah
It’s Christmastime
Woah
It’s Christmastime in the country
Woah
It’s Christmastime in the country
It’s Christmastime
Thinks I’m gonna chop some wood
Gonna build me a fire
Gonna shovel some snow
On second thought, maybe I’ll get my husband to do it though
I just wanna sit around and watch my kiddie grow
Don’t you know?
It’s Christmastime
