Well, I picked out a tree   And I tied it to the car   There's a wreath up on our door   Eight tiny reindeer in the yard      I drove under the downtown lights   Red an' green and blue   The silver neon snowflakes   Only made me think of you      It's Christmas all around me   You're in someone else's land   So I'm sending out my only wish   Hey Santa, tell the man      Hey mister, send my baby home   This December I don't wanna be all alone   Oh, Christmas in America, I need you in my arms   Far away from harm, send my baby home      I hear someone singin' 'Jingle Bells'   No wait that's 'Deck the halls'   While the teenagers with candy canes   Ramble through the malls      The girls are down at Ruby's   Trying to find some Christmas cheer   There's not much to do but drink too much   When everyday is unclear      So here I am on Christmas eve   This silent holy night   And I reach up to the stars for you   I pray that you're alright      Hey mister, send my baby home   This December I don't wanna be all alone   Oh, Christmas in America I need you in my arms   Far away from harm, mister, send my baby home      What happened to the peace on Earth   All that goodwill toward men?   Oh come on all ye faithful   It's time to think again      Hey mister, send my baby home   This December I don't want to be all alone   Oh, come on, come on, come on   Hey mister, send my baby home   This December I don't want to be all alone      Send my baby home, send my baby home   Send my baby home, send my baby home   Come on, send my baby home, send my baby home   Send my baby home, send my baby home      Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah   Yeah yeah yeah yeah oh, come on, come on   Yeah yeah oh oh oh, yeah yeah yeah, oh oh oh oh oh oh   Send my baby home, send my baby home   Come on send my baby home, send my baby home
