Going Spaceward - Christmas in Texas

This year has chewed me up and spit me out
It's kicked my teeth and knocked me down
These bruises won't be healed for a while
But when December rolls around
I pick myself up off the ground
And, somehow, I still crack a smile
All year long, I sung the blues
I took my licks and paid my dues
Hey, Santa, you owe me somethin' nice
And even though we won't see snow
We'll still hang up the mistletoe
And know that everything will be alright
I should feel colder than I do right now
But there's a star hung on the highest bough
When I hear songs about that one-horse open sleigh
Like Christmas in Texas, I feel like a warm, sunny day
I've been all across this land
From Dallas to the Rio Grande
And I've done everything there is to do
Hit every bar that Austin had
That Houston skyline isn't bad
But nothing beats a Christmas Eve with you
Sometimes I want to sleep 'til May
I can't get up and face the day
But let those Christmas carols play
And everything just melts away
I should feel colder than I do right now
But there's a star hung on the highest bough
When I hear songs about that yuletide oh so gay
Like Christmas in Texas, I feel like a warm, sunny day
I should feel colder than I do right now
But there's a star hung on the highest bough
When I hear songs about that manger filled with hay
Like Christmas in Texas, I feel like a warm, sunny day
I should feel colder than I do right now
I should feel colder than I do right now
I should feel colder than I do right now
