Well, I woke up Christmas morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
And the goose I had for breakfast wasn't bad
And I had eggnog for dessert
Then I fumbled in my stocking through the coals
And found a pack of dime store razors
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
Stumbled down the stairs to meet the day

I'd smoked my mind on Christmas eve
With candy canes and carols that I'd been pickin'
But I ate my first and watched a small kid
Playing with a present he’d been given
Then I walked across the street
And caught the Christmas smell of someone shipin’ Grapefruit
And oh it took me back to somethin'
That I'd lost somewhere, somehow along the way

[Chorus]
On a Christmas morning sidewalk
I'm wishing, Lord, that there was snow
'Cause there's something in a Christmas
That makes a body feel alone
And there’s nothin' short of dyin'
As half as lonesome as the sound
Of a sleepin' winter sidewalk
And Christmas morning coming down

In the park, I saw St. Nicolas
With a laughing little elf who was a helping
And I stopped beside a Christmas tree
And heard the bad kids empty-handed, yelping
Then I headed down the streets
And somewhere far away reindeer’s bells were ringing
And they echoed through the tinsel
Like the disappearing man upon his sleigh

[Chorus]
On a Christmas morning sidewalk
I'm wishing, Lord, that there was snow
'Cause there's something in a Christmas
That makes a body feel alone
And there’s nothin' short of dyin'
As half as lonesome as the sound
Of a sleepin' winter sidewalk
And Christmas morning coming down
