[Intro]
It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"Won’t see another one"
And he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you
Got a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So, happy Christmas
I love you, baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true
[Verse 1]
They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
The wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old
You first to my hand on that cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome, you were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band started playing, they howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks, they were singing
When we kissed on the corner, then danced through the night
It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"Won’t see another one"
And he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you
Got a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So, happy Christmas
I love you, baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true
[Verse 1]
They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
The wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old
You first to my hand on that cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome, you were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band started playing, they howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks, they were singing
When we kissed on the corner, then danced through the night
