christmas rock þarký sözü

(lewis anderson)

my billfold doesn´t have a prayer
there´s christmas catalogs everywhere
she keeps looking at the jewelry section
cutting pictures out of her selections

i said we need to hold it down this year
and in her eye she got a big ol´ tear
she wants a christmas rock
but santaæ?¯ pockets ain´t got no roll

she don´t want pots and pans
just something shinin´ on her hand
with an emerald or a diamond on it
i had a budget but she´s gone and blown it
down to the jewelry store, here i go
hear the clerk say, ho, ho, ho
she wants a christmas rock
but santaæ?¯ pockets ain´t got no roll

she don´t want anything from sears
no tools or garden shears
there´s something special on her mind
and i can´t even afford the shine

i wish she´d settled for a long nightshirt
no, iæ?³e got to give till it hurts
she wants a christmas rock
but santaæ?¯ pockets ain´t got no roll

she don´t want pots and pans
just something shinin´ on her hand
with an emerald or a diamond on it
i had a budget but she´s gone and blown it
down to the jewelry store, here i go
hear the clerk say, ho, ho, ho
she wants a christmas rock
but santaæ?¯ pockets ain´t got no roll

she wants a christmas rock
but ol´ santaæ?¯ pockets ain´t got no roll
