LYRICS

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

And I know I'm goin' home

Snow flake's a-fallin'

My old home's a-callin'

Tall pines are hummin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'?

Joy, oh Lord, to hear them singin'

When it's snowin', I'll be goin'

Back to my country home

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

And I know I'm goin' home

White candles a-burnin'

My old heart's a-yearnin'

For the folks at home when

Christmas time's a-comin'

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'?

Joy, oh Lord, to hear them singin'

When it's snowin', I'll be goin'

Back to my country home

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

And I know I'm goin' home

Holly's in the window

Home where the wind blows

Can't walk for runnin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'?

Joy, oh Lord to hear them singin'

When it's snowin', I'll be goin'

Back to my country home

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

And I know I'm goin' home

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

Christmas time's a-comin'

And I know I'm goin' home
