Freddie King - Texas Oil - The Complete Federal Recordings

Christmas Tears

I hear sleigh bells ring
But I haven't heard a word from you in years
I hear sleigh bells ringin'
But I haven't heard a word from you in years

Oh, I hear choirs singin'
And I'm just sittin' here cryin' Christmas tears

Everybody's singin' "Merry Christmas"
As they watch the starry sky filled with reindeers
Everybody's singin' "Merry Christmas"
As they watch the starry sky filled with reindeers

I'm smilin' on the outside
But on the inside I'm cryin' Christmas tears

Oh, you been gone for a long, long time
It's Christmas and I can't get you off of my mind
It seems that you've been gone like a hundred years or more
But if you were here with me I'd hang "Merry Christmas" on my door

I need you, darling
To hold me tight
I need you, dear
On this Christmas night
As I sit and think of the lonely years
I can't help but cry Christmas tears

Oh, Christmas tears
