Lyrics
There's no snow on the ground
Only red dirt spinning round
If there's a party to be found
You know he won't make a sound
When Santa's Texas bound
He traded in his red suit and his cap
For a pair of blue jeans and an old pearl snap
Boots with spurs and a cowboy hat
When you cross the red river on the map
Even old Santa knows where he's at
It must be Christmas time in Texas
You know there's no place he'd rather be
He got tired of Oklahoma
And all the music in Tennessee
He likes 6th Street down in Austin
Hanging out with Robert Earl Keen
He throws a party for George Strait's exes
When Santa rides through Texas
He traded in Rudolph for a longhorn steer
A team of wild horses bringing up the rear
He bought him a case of Lone Star beer
Swapped his sleigh for an old John Deere
Just as soon as he got here
It must be Christmas time in Texas
Ain't no place he'd rather be
He got tired of Oklahoma
And all the music in Tennessee
He flies high with Willie Nelson
Drinks margaritas at Joe T
He shares a couple of George Strait's exes
When Santa rides through Texas
It must be Christmas time in Texas
You know there's no place he'd rather be
He got tired of Oklahoma
And all the music in Tennessee
From Amarillo down to Corpus
And every small town in between
He likes a Lone Star kind of Christmas
When Santa rides through Texas
We like a Lone Star kind of Christmas
I don't think Santa's leaving
I don't think Santa's leaving Texas
