Yeah, we all know it's comin'
|
Every year, Thanksgivin' day
|
We're gonna wish we hadn't
|
But we all come over anyway
|
And it's nice to see the family
|
And lord, her cookin's great
|
But when she starts a'hummin' on Jingle Bells
|
We know there ain't no escape
|
|
'Cause Mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
And you better stay out of her way
|
She's got a a million lights, a ton of decorations
|
And they gotta go up today
|
Yeah, there ain't no doubt when they're all pulled out
|
She's gonna have a job for you
|
Mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
So you better get ready too
|
|
Now she's the queen of redneck Christmas
|
At least that's what my daddy thinks
|
While he's climbin' up the ladder with an eight foot Santa
|
That laughs and waves and blinks
|
Last year my brother Bill almost got killed
|
Wirin' up that artificial tree
|
And when I get done with these stupid plastic reindeer
|
That's the last that woman's gonna see of me
|
I bet you that!
|
|
Mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
And you better stay out of her way
|
She's got a a million lights, a ton of decorations
|
And they gotta go up today
|
Naw, there ain't no doubt when they're all pulled out
|
She's gonna have a job for you
|
Mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
So you better get ready too
|
|
Aw, the front yard's gonna look like Las Vegas
|
And folks will come from near and far
|
'Cause everybody knows when she throws that switch
|
Christmas is about to start
|
|
Yeah, Mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
And you better stay out of her way
|
She's got a a million lights, a ton of decorations
|
And they gotta go up today
|
Naw, there ain't no doubt when they're all pulled out
|
She's gonna have a job for you
|
Yeah, Mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
So you better get ready too
|
|
I said my mama's gettin' ready for Christmas
|
|
Merry Christmas everybody!
|
|
So you better get ready too
|
