A Christmas Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She was his girl, he was her boy-friend,
Soon be his wife, and take him as her husband.
A suprise on the way, anyday anyday
One healthy little giggling, dribblin, baby boy.
The wise men came, three made their way,
To shower him with love, as he lay in the hay.
Shower him with Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love is all around
Not a very much of his childhood was known,
kept his mother Mary worried, always out on his own.
He met another Mary, who, for a reasonable fee,
less than reputable was known to be.
His heart was full of Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love was all around
So I'm told or so the story goes,
the people he knew were less than golden-hearted.
Gamblers and robbers; Drinkers and jokers,
all soul searchers, like you and me, like you and me.
Rumors insisted he soon would be,
for his deviations, taken into custody.
By the authorities, less informed than he.
Drinkers and jokers, all soul searchers
Searchin for Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love is all around
When Jesus Christ was nailed to his tree,
He said, "Oh daddy-o. I can see how it all soon will be"
I came to spread a little light on this darkening seen,
Instead I fear I've spilled, the blood of my children allaround
the blood of my children all around,
the blood of my children's all around
Preperations were made for his celebration dayyyy.
He said, "Eat this bread, think of it as me,
Drink this wine and dream it will be
the blood of our children all around
the of our children's all around,
The blood of our children's all around
FATHER UP ABOVE,
WHY IN ALL THIS HATRED DO YOU FILL ME UP WITH
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love, Love
Love, Love- -FATHER UP ABOVE,
WHY IN ALL THIS HATRED DO YA FILL ME UP WITH
Fill me up with Love Love
Love, Love, Love
all ya need is Love, Love, Love
ya can't buy me Love, Love, Love
Love, Love...And the blood of our children's all around.
