Country Christmas Ho Down

Country Christmas Ho Down

 

Country folk love their music

And they will tell you so

They dance at the dance halls ‘oft

And do the do-si-do

 

Young and old dance around

And do a little jig

They enjoy the fiddle sound

And eat a fatted pig

 

Banjos duel and guitars play

And the country folk dance all night

Brothers and sisters quarrel a bit

And suitors sometimes fight

 

Couples kiss and share their love

And teens talk to each other

Men smile at their mates

And old flames are quickly smothered

 

And there is the mistletoe

When Christmas comes around

Where feelings spark and relations grow

With new love all around

 

The men take a break outside

Underneath a full moon light

They sip their whiskey and smoke a bit

And talk about their lives

 

Headlights shine on old farm trucks

With Santa’s sleigh parked there

Several trucks were getting stuck

And in need of some repair

 

Many saw Santa’s sleigh

And thought it a bit ironic

That so many trucks could get stuck

While the sleigh was supersonic

          Thanks Michael! I've never heard of a 'ho up', but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist lol
