Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: Christmas Time's a-Comin' (Tex Logan)
Subject: RE: Christmas Times a Comin'
There must be dozens of variations
of this popular seasonal song
Bill Monroe recorded it
The Osborne Brothers recorded it
Marty Stuart does it
Each with slightly different lyrics
CHRISTMAS TIME'S A-COMIN'
Diamond Rio
Holly's in the window
Home where the wind blows
Can't walk for 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'.
Repeat 2nd and 3rd verses.
Snow flake's a-fallin'
My old home's a-callin'
Tall pine's a-hummin'
Christmas Time's A-Comin'.
Repeat 2nd and 3rd verses.
Diamond Rio version from Grand Ole Opry broadcast
