 It was Christmas EDve babe

 In the drGunk tank

 An old man sDaid to me, won’t see Aanother one

 And then he saDng a song

 The rare old mGountain dew

 I turned my faDce away

 And GdreamedA about Dyou A

 Got on a lDucky one

 Came in eGighteen to one

 I’ve got aD feeling

 This year for mAe and you

 So happy CDhristmas

 I love you bGaby

 I can see a Dbetter time

 When aGll our dAreams comeD true

D A D G

D A G A

 They’ve gotD cars big Aas bars

 They’ve gotB rivers Gof gold

 But the wDind goes right through you

 It’s no place for the Aold

 When you Dfirst took my Bmhand

 On a Dcold Christmas Geve

DYou promised me

 Broadway wasA waiting for Dme

 You were hDandsome

You were pretty

 Queen of New York CAity

 When the bDand finished Gplaying

 They hAowled out forD more

DSinatra was swinging,

 All the drunks they were sAinging

 We kiDssed on a cGorner

 Then danAced through the Dnight

 ThGe boys of the NYPD Achoir

 WereD singing GalwayBm bay

 And the bDells werGe ringingA out

 For Christmas Dday

D A G A

D A G A

 YouD’re a bum

You’re a punk

 You’re an old slut on Ajunk

 Lying tDhere almost Gdead on aA drip in thDat bed

 You scDumbag, you maggot

 You cheap lousy fAaggot

 Happy ChrDistmas your Garse

 I pray GAod its our lDast

 ThGe boys of the NYPD choir

 WereD singing GalwayB bay

 And the bDells werGe ringingA out

 For Christmas Dday A

 I could have Dbeen someone

 Well so could Ganyone

 You took my drDeams from me

 When I first fAound you

 I kept them with me bDabe

 I put them Gwith my own

 Can’t make itD all alone

 I’ve bGuilt my Adreams aroundD you

 ThGe boys of thBme NYPD Achoir

 WereD singing GalwayBm bay

 And the bDells werGe ringingA out

 For Christmas Dday
