Goin’ Home for Christmas Merle Haggard

My family called me on the phone and said
"Grandpa would you come home?"
We'd love to have you here on Christmas day
We know you won't get on a plane
But grandpa you can ride a train
You can see the scenery along way"

Going home for Christmas
Coming on a train
Got my big red knapsack loaded down
Going home for Christmas
Coming on a train
Soon, I'll be rolling into town

I know everybody there will be happy
And they'd be down to meet me
When they hear the whistle sound
I know my one-horse stage will be waiting
On the choo-choo bringing Santa Claus to town

Going home for Christmas
Coming on a train
Got my big red knapsack loaded down
Going home for Christmas
Coming on a train
Soon, I'll be rolling into town
