'Tis the season for sharin'
And the reason for carin'
Is the baby that was born upon this day
With our family and friends
We're together again
Celebratin' his birth down Texas way
Chorus:
Merry Christmas from Texas, y'all
Where we hang the mistletoe and deck the 'ole dance hall
May that big Lone Star shine on you from afar
Merry Christmas from Texas, y'all
Well the kids are up early
'Cus they're in such a hurry
To see what is underneath the tree
Later we're sayin' grace
And fixin' our plates
Sittin' down to watch the Cowboys on TV
{Chorus}
When the company leaves
And the children fall asleep
Surrounded by the toys that Santa brought
Now that Texas moon is bright
Against the silent night
Peace on earth and goodwill to all
{Chorus}
From South Padre up to Pampa
El Paso to Texarkana
Merry Christas from Texas, y'all!
