Switchfoot - Scrappy Little Christmas Tree lyrics
[Switchfoot - Scrappy Little Christmas Tree lyrics]
When I was just a kid, I had no money at all
I didn't have the extra quid to
Spend for decking the halls
So the only little pine for my family and me
Was a scrappy little Christmas tree
And then I got a little older
And I got me some dough
So I went down to buy a tree
But it was covered with snow
I couldn't tell until it melted
There on Christmas Eve
It was a scrappy little Christmas tree
It's getting late at the Christmas tree lot
And all the trees worth
Getting were already got
Hey, but there's a runt in
The corner sitting all alone
I said, "Hey Momma
Maybe we could give him a home?"
So I finally got a tree
A little taller than me
I ain't hatin' decoratin'
But you wouldn't believe
I was dreaming 'bout the simple
Way it used to be
With a scrappy little Christmas tree
There ain't no correlation with the
Size of the gift
And the happiness you're feeling with
The ones that you're with
When you're sitting, reminiscing
Kissing happy beneath
Any scrappy little Christmas tree
It's getting late at the Christmas tree lot
And all the trees worth
Getting were already got
But there's a runt in the
Corner sitting all alone i said, "Hey Momma
Maybe we could give him a home?"
So I finally got a tree
A little taller than me
I ain't hatin' decoratin'
But you wouldn't believe
I was dreaming 'bout the simple
Way it used to be
With you and me and that three-foot tall
Crappy Christmas tree
I didn't have the extra quid to
Spend for decking the halls
So the only little pine for my family and me
Was a scrappy little Christmas tree
And then I got a little older
And I got me some dough
So I went down to buy a tree
But it was covered with snow
I couldn't tell until it melted
There on Christmas Eve
It was a scrappy little Christmas tree
It's getting late at the Christmas tree lot
And all the trees worth
Getting were already got
Hey, but there's a runt in
The corner sitting all alone
I said, "Hey Momma
Maybe we could give him a home?"
So I finally got a tree
A little taller than me
I ain't hatin' decoratin'
But you wouldn't believe
I was dreaming 'bout the simple
Way it used to be
With a scrappy little Christmas tree
There ain't no correlation with the
Size of the gift
And the happiness you're feeling with
The ones that you're with
When you're sitting, reminiscing
Kissing happy beneath
Any scrappy little Christmas tree
It's getting late at the Christmas tree lot
And all the trees worth
Getting were already got
But there's a runt in the
Corner sitting all alone i said, "Hey Momma
Maybe we could give him a home?"
So I finally got a tree
A little taller than me
I ain't hatin' decoratin'
But you wouldn't believe
I was dreaming 'bout the simple
Way it used to be
With you and me and that three-foot tall
Crappy Christmas tree
