There’s music in the city
And the lights are on display
There's a big old tree for all to see
Where the children run and play

I look out through my window
Something just don't seem right
Til I said hello and heard her voice
On the other end of the line

Now it's Christmas, Christmas I'm hurryin' on my way
Christmas, Christmas, like I'm ridin’ in a one horse sleigh
Well, I don't have to hear no jingle bells, just the ringin’ of the phone
Mama just called and said it's time for me to come home

The pies are in the oven
You can almost taste the air
And it warms my heart to feel her love
And know how much she cares

It's funny how going back
Can get you back to where you belong
It’s the difference in just a melody
And my favorite Christmas song

Well, it's Christmas, Christmas, I'm hurryin' on my way
Christmas, Christmas, like I'm ridin’ in a one horse sleigh
Well, I don't have to hear no jingle bells, just the ringin’ of the phone
Mama just called and said it's time for you to come home
Mama just called and said it's time for you to come home
