By now in New York City
There's snow on the ground
And out in California
The sunshines' falling down
And maybe down in Memphis,
Graceland's all in lights
And in Atlanta, Georgia,
There's peace on earth tonight
Christmas in Dixie
It's snowing in the pines
Merry Christmas from Dixie
To everyone tonight
It's windy in Chicago
The kids are out of school
There's magic in Motown
The city's on the move
In Jackson, Mississippi
To Charlotte, Caroline
And all across the Nation,
Its a peaceful Christmas time
Christmas in Dixie
Its snowing in the pines
Merry Christmas from Dixie,
To everyone tonight
And from Fort Payne, Alabama
Merry Christmas tonight
