Текст песни
It was snowing on Christmas Eve
She took me up to Walkers Hill with a flask she filled
With egg nog and rum from her daddy's still
We broke in the shed, took out the sled
To sit and watch the lights of town
I went for a kiss and the sled did shift
And suddenly we're flying down
There's a choir on the corner singing a hallelujah carol
There's a Santa ringing a bell, I think it's my cousin Darrell
Normal people in the town square, a tree and a star atop it
And I'm riding a sleigh in a whiskey haze
And I don't know how to stop it
Father O'Malley's midnight mass
Preaching with all his holy power
We broke into the congregation
About ninety mile an hour
Sister Hazel she just fainted
Banker Bell had a heart attack
They had people in the manger
Though I was stranger
As the baby kept waving back
There's a choir on the corner singing a hallelujah carol
There's a Santa ringing a bell, I think it's my cousin Darrell
Normal people in the town square, a tree and a star atop it
And I'm riding a sleigh in a whiskey haze
And I don't know how to stop it
Sergeant Mackenzie the town's traffic cop
Was working the late night shift
Blowing his whistle and waving his arms
As suddenly we gave him a lift
We burst through the picture window
At Sully's pub downtown
I said "Back the cop, when this thing stops
You're gonna buy me and the bar another round"
There's a choir on the corner singing a hallelujah carol
There's a Santa ringing a bell, I think it's my cousin Darrell
Normal people in the town square, a tree and a star atop it
And I'm riding a sleigh in a whiskey haze
And I don't know how to stop it
