Holly's in the window
Home where the wind blows
The cane foam's a-runnin'
Christmas Time's A-Comin'.
Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'
Joy, don'tcha 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 candle's burnin'
My old heart's a-yearnin'
For the folks at home when
Christmas Time's A-Comin'.
Snow flake's a-fallin'
My old heart's a-callin'
Tall pine's a-hummin'
Christmas Time's A-Comin'.
