Well we'd all head to waco for the birth of our lord

My folks and my brother in an '82 ford

We'd pull in the driveway filled up with cars

Old aunts and old uncles lord I see stars

And then we'd run to the kitchen you

know kids and their games

Play fetch with old buster call each other names

Aunt betty'd be singing while supper was cooking

We'd unwrap the gifts when no one was lookin'

Let's all gather 'round grandpa say the blessing

Aunt Jane she fell asleep

Mary Kay burned the dressing

But we got all of our friends and family here

And I'm grateful for Christmas this year

Well this year we're in Houston let's all get together

Man I almost saw snow can you believe this weather

Who's gonna be here uncle Frank can't make it

Since grandpa died I don't know if nana can take it

Well this present's a sweater and

the pie don't taste right

And dad and the TV are startin' to fight

I wish I had a drink or maybe a dozen

Lord what I'd give for one good lookin' cousin

So let's all gather 'round dad you say the blessing

Aunt Jane she fell asleep and

Mary Kay forgot the dressing

But we got all of our friends and family here

And I'm grateful for Christmas this year

Hey mom how you doing yeah I miss him too

Nah the Christmas lights don't

make your hair look blue

The cousins ain't coming and Jon's overseas

And I guess my wife loves her folks more than me

But the ladies from the church said

they might stop by

I brought you this picture ahh mama don't cry

Let's play cards and watch the news channel

I love you too and thanks for the flannel

So let's all gather 'round I guess

I'll say the blessing

Aunt Jane she fell asleep and

I never cared for dressing

But we got all of our friends and family here

And I'm grateful for Christmas this year

Oh I'm grateful for Christmas this year
