Lyrics

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house Not a creature was sober, especially not my spouse I got 47 dollars in the god darn bank Honey, how do you possibly think We're gonna get the presents and the light bill paid? How in the hell we gonna deck these halls? You and me both been workin' like dogs Biting each other's heads plum off Makin' decorations out of shotgun shells Makin' it up as we go Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal I got 27 people comin' over this house And I can't get you off of that couch And you wonder why I keep runnin' my mouth Get up the holler, cut a stem off a tree While I'm goin' through mama's old recipes If you get too drunk, you're gonna deal with me Makin' decorations out of shotgun shells Makin' it up as we go Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal Makin' decorations out of shotgun shells Makin' it up as we go Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal
