I met a hooker at the grocery store
She wasn't bad lookin', she was a pretty little whore
Whoa-o-whoa, she's the girl with the holiday smile
She told me: "merry christmas and peace to you"
She said "i've been workin' this whole night through."
She said "whoa-o-whoa, i'm the girl with the holiday smile"
She told me "whoa my whoa me, i look so good beneath a christmas tree"
She said "whoa-o-whoa, i'm the girl with the holiday smile"
She told me "christmas brings out the best in me"
She said "my heart's so full of love and generosity"
"whoa-o-whoa, i'm the girl with the holiday smile"
And "well the police here and the police there
"they ruin my christmas spirit everywhere i go."
"whoa-o-whoa, i'm the girl with the holiday smile"
She told me "whoa my whoa me, i look so good beneath a christmas tree"
She said "whoa-o-whoa, i'm the girl with the holiday smile"
Well she told me "goodbye" as she walked away
She said "son, if you're good maybe on christmas day"
Whoa-o-whoa...
I said "whoa my whoa me, she looks so good beneath my christmas tree"
Whoa-o-whoa, she's the girl with the holiday...
I met a hooker at the grocery store
She wasn't bad lookin', she was a pretty little whore
Whoa-o-whoa, she's the girl with the holiday..
Well lord lord, she's the girl with the holiday...
Whoa-o-whoa, she's the girl with the holiday..
Silent night shining so bright
She ain't holy but she can hold me tight
Whoa-o-whoa, she's the girl with the holiday...
