Jewel - Christmas in the Country lyrics

24 Xs on the calendar The kids say, "Hooray! The big day's finally here!" It's Christmas Eve They set out Santa's cookies, just like rehearsed Look so excited that they just might burst It's Christmas Eve And the kids won't go to sleep Woah It's Christmastime in the country Woah It's Christmastime Before dawn, there's a chill in the air Head to the tree to see the kids already there It's Christmas day There's cocoa and pancakes for the family Loved ones gather all 'round the tree This Christmas day Everybody's got so much to say Woah It's Christmastime in the country Woah It's Christmastime It's Christmastime Slow yodeling Had no clue what to do for Uncle Bob or Cousin Jean It's sure good Santa Claus takes care of everything This Christmastime Opening presents, the kids are sure glad But those kids are the best gift we ever could have This Christmastime We're gonna count our blessings tonight Woah It's Christmastime in the country Woah It's Christmastime Woah It's Christmastime in the country Woah It's Christmastime in the country It's Christmastime Thinks I'm gonna chop some wood Gonna build me a fire Gonna shovel some snow On second thought, maybe I'll get my husband to do it though I just wanna sit around and watch my kiddie grow Don't you know? It's Christmastime
