I woke up Christmas morning, found out I was all alone
I looked for my woman, I found out she was gone

Such a bad time to leave me on this Christmas day
I ain't gonna sit here and worry, I'm going out and play

I don't know how she did it, she took most everything
Looked in my Christmas stocking, found her wedding ring

Such a bad time to leave me, on this Christmas day
I ain't gonna sit here and worry, I'm going out and play

I ain't got no Christmas turkey
Ain't got no Christmas pie
Got my eye on another little girl, so I think I'm going to get by

Such a bad time to leave me, on this Christmas day
I ain't gonna sit here and worry, I'm going out and play

She could've left me on Easter, or even Groundhog Day
She could've given me some warning before she went away

Such a bad time to leave me, on this Christmas day
I ain't gonna sit here and worry, I'm going out and play

I ain't sure where she went to, must be with another man
If she think I'm gonna sit here and worry, I don't really give a damn

Such a bad time to leave me, on this Christmas day
I ain't gonna sit here and worry, I'm going out and play

I ain't got no Christmas turkey
Ain't got no Christmas pie
But got my eye on another little girl, so I think I'm going to get by

Such a bad time to leave me, on this Christmas day
I ain't gonna sit here and worry, I'm going out and play
