Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la la la la!
Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la la la la!
Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la la la la la la!
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol, Fa la la la la la la la!

She said goodbye on Christmas day
With a richer man she ran away
In the back of a sleigh in his arms she lay
Sheâs the bitch of Christmas day
With a broken heart on Christmas day
A man can sing or a man can pray
In an empty house no-one will stay
Iâm alone on Christmas day
â â â -
Through the snow and the hail
I will find me a way to the mayor
By the light of a star
as a friend with the jar and a song
So raise a glass
To the love that will pass
This Christmas drown the ghost of the past

In the morning grey on boxing day
The barman send me on my way
I smell like piss and a full ash tray
I am home on boxing day
â â â -
Through the snow and the hail
I went on when I met with a stranger
Who came from afar from a friend with a jar and a song
So raise a glass
To the love that will pass
This Christmas drown the ghost of the past

I went to church on new yearâs day
For a priest to take my sins away
He had some wine to share and a prayer to pray
And we drank on new yearâs day
