Give me an old fashioned Christmas,
An old fashioned Christmas,
Family faces, wide open spaces,
Covered with snow,
Right now my mom there in the kitchen,
Basting the Christmas bird,
You'll have to take my word,
You can't find that at the automat.
An old fashioned fireplace,
Give me an old fashioned fireplace,
My heart remembers smoldering embers,
Warming your glow,
I'd trade that whole Manhattan skyline,
The shimmering steel and chrome,
For one old fashioned Christmas back home.
An old fashioned christmas
Give me an old fashioned Christmas
Family faces wide open spaces
Covered with snow
Right now my moms there in the kitchen
Basting the christmas bird
You'll have to take my word
You can't find that at the automat
An old fashioned fireplace,
Give me an old fashioned fireplace,
My heart remembers smoldering embers,
Warming your glow,
I'd trade that whole Manhattan skyline,
The shimmering steel and chrome,
For one old fashioned Christmas back home.
