Lyrics
I’ll have a blue
Christ mas
with out you,
I’ll be so blue
think ing
a bout you.
Dec o ra
tions of red
on a green
Christ mas tree
won’t
mean a thing
if you’re not here with me.
I’ll have a blue
Christ mas,
that’s cer tain;
and
when that blue
heart ache
starts hurt in’,
you’ll be do
in’ al right
with your Christ
mas of white,
but I’ll
have a blue,
blue
Christ mas.
