Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow (2005 Remaster)

Through long December nights we talk in words of rain or snow

While you, through chattering teeth, reply and curse us as you go

Why not spare a thought this day for those who have no flame

To warm their bones at Christmas time?

Say Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow

Now as the last broad oak leaf falls, we beg: consider this

There's some who have no coin to save for turkey, wine or gifts

No children's laughter round the fire, no family left to know

So lend a warm and a helping hand

Say Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow

As holly pricks and ivy clings

Your fate is none too clear

The Lord may find you wanting, let your good fortune disappear

All homely comforts blown away and all that's left to show

Is to share your joy at Christmas time

With Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow

Through long December nights we talk in words of rain or snow

While you, through chattering teeth, reply and curse us as you go

Why not spare a thought this day for those who have no flame

To warm their bones at Christmas time?

Say Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow
