Our boys and girls will be here soon
coming home from war
I`m so glad it`s Christmas time this year
But they`lI be going back to war again I fear
Can`t they stay for Christmas time this year
Now Johnny ain`t got no legs
and Billy ain`t got no face
Do they know it`s Christmas time this year
Tommy looks about the same
but his mind is gone
Does he know it`s Christmas time this year
When is Santa corming `round
`cause I got some requests
I bet he knows it`s Christmas time this year
Military personnel might not be on his list
Don`t he know it`s Christmas time this year
All I want is two good arms
so I can hold my kids
Then they`ll know it`s Christmas time this year
I`d like a mouth so
I can kiss my honey on her lips
Then she`ll koow it`s Christmas time this year
Because it`s Christmas time Christmas time
Yes it`s merry Christmas time
Everybody stand up tall and cheer
Our children will be coming home
in plastic bags I fear
Then we`ll know it`s Christmas time this year
Thank you Mr President for your
kind words and deeds
There`s just one thing I`d like for you to hear
Take this war and shove it up
your Crawford Texas ass
And then you`ll know it`s
Christmas time this year
