Tammie Brown - Coal in Your Stocking lyrics
[Tammie Brown - Coal in Your Stocking lyrics]
Christmas is too commercial
I told my friend Herschel
As we're waiting in line to see Santa Claus
And this is what Herschel said to me
He said:
Coal in your stockings
Will be diamonds in the morning
But only if you believe in me
Although you're getting older
And the world may seem a bit colder
You must always have faith in Christmas Eve
'Cause all the bells are ringing
And all the kids are singing
And I'm a ding-a-linging away
Yes, ribbons and bows the illicit ho-hoes
And all the carolers are gay
Well, I looked at that dime
Store Santa and I said:
"Give me a break i'm too old to believe
That fairy tale pie in the sky"
He chuckled as he spoke he
Said it wasn't a joke he said:
Coal in your stockings
Will be diamonds in the morning
But only if you believe in me
Although you're getting older
And the world may seem a bit colder
You must always have faith in Christmas Eve
'Cause all the bells are ringing
And all the kids are singing
And I'm a ding-a-linging away
Yes, ribbons and bows the illicit ho-hoes
And all the carolers are gay
Well, I looked in my
Stocking on Christmas morning
And there was diamonds sparkling everywhere
So I yelled up the chimney: "Santa
Forgive me i'll always remember you care"
Coal in your stockings
Will be diamonds in the morning
But only if you believe in me
Although you're getting older
And the world may seem a bit colder
You must always have faith in Christmas Eve
'Cause all the bells are ringing
And all the kids are singing
And I'm a ding-a-linging away
Yes, ribbons and bows the illicit ho-hoes
And all the carolers are gay
I told my friend Herschel
As we're waiting in line to see Santa Claus
And this is what Herschel said to me
He said:
Coal in your stockings
Will be diamonds in the morning
But only if you believe in me
Although you're getting older
And the world may seem a bit colder
You must always have faith in Christmas Eve
'Cause all the bells are ringing
And all the kids are singing
And I'm a ding-a-linging away
Yes, ribbons and bows the illicit ho-hoes
And all the carolers are gay
Well, I looked at that dime
Store Santa and I said:
"Give me a break i'm too old to believe
That fairy tale pie in the sky"
He chuckled as he spoke he
Said it wasn't a joke he said:

Will be diamonds in the morning
But only if you believe in me
Although you're getting older
And the world may seem a bit colder
You must always have faith in Christmas Eve
'Cause all the bells are ringing
And all the kids are singing
And I'm a ding-a-linging away
Yes, ribbons and bows the illicit ho-hoes
And all the carolers are gay
Well, I looked in my
Stocking on Christmas morning
And there was diamonds sparkling everywhere
So I yelled up the chimney: "Santa
