Alabama - Tonight Is Christmas lyrics

Written by keith worsham, stan munsey, jr., don matthews, and steve baccus The factories are all shut down and the shopping malls are all closed And the busy streets are all empty except for the falling snow And in the small towns, in the cities families gather as one 'cause the night of love and sharing they look forward to has come Chorus: 'cause tonight is christmas, tonight is love Tonight we celebrate god's one and only son Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally Tonight is christmas and the world's in harmony But across the seas two armies stare down at each other's guns Each believing in their cause enough to die or kil the other one But tonight there'll be no shooting, not a drop of blood will spill They will cease their fire this silent night in the name of peace and goodwill Chorus
