Comin’ Home for Christmas Songtext
von Dolly Parton

Mama′s in the kitchen, Christmas on the stove
Daddy's in the wood shed with axe and over coat
Everybody′s helpin' to place and trim the tree
The picture's almost perfect, it′s only missin′ me

But I'm comin′ home for Christmas
Save a place for me
I'll arrive before St. Nicholas
Place his gifts beneath the tree
Leave a candle burnin′
And a key underneath the mat
I'm comin′ home for Christmas
You can count on that

(Let it snow, let it snow)

Snow is gently fallin' as I make my way toward home
I hear sweet memories callin', I′ve been a long time gone
Nothin′ like the family and friends to celebrate
The fun, the food, the music of this special holiday


Oh and I'm comin′ home for Christmas
Save a place for me
I'll arrive before St. Nicholas
Place his gifts beneath the tree
So leave a candle burnin′
Leave a key underneath the mat
I'm comin′ home for Christmas
We all can depend on that

Hang holly in the window
Hang tinsel on the tree
Hang mistletoe above the door
And hang your hopes on me

I'm comin' home for Christmas
No place I′d rather be
I′m comin' home for Christmas
You can count on me
I′m comin' home for Christmas
You can count on me
Oh, I′m comin' home
I′m comin' home
