The Oak Ridge Boys - Christmas Carol lyrics
[The Oak Ridge Boys - Christmas Carol lyrics]
Like a fixture down on Main Street
She stood there all year long
With a tin cup and a tamborine
Singing Christmas songs
Folks thought she was crazy
But they loved to hear her sing
They'd drop some money in her can
She'd shake that tamborine
And they called her Christmas Carol
There's not a Christmas song
She couldn't sing i remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and
Her beat up tamborine
She wore that same old ragged
Coat all the year around
Lived all alone in a little
Shack just outside of town
She'd stand there singing "Jingle Bells" in
The heat of the summer time
Yes, every day was Christmas
In Carol Johnson's mind
And they called her Christmas Carol
There's not a Christmas song
She couldn't sing i remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and
Her beat up tamborine
But I can still remember that
Twinkle in her eye
'Cause Carol kept a secret from
The people passing by
That secret was a mystery they
Talked about so long
How each Christmas eve those gifts showed
Up outside the children's home
That was forty years ago, or fifty I believe
But still the toys keep showing up
Each year on Christmas eve
I wonder if we'll ever know just
Who took up the cause
Is it still Christmas Carol
Or is it Santa Claus?
And they called her Christmas Carol
There's not a Christmas song
She couldn't sing i remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and
Her beat up tamborine
She stood there all year long
With a tin cup and a tamborine
Singing Christmas songs
Folks thought she was crazy
But they loved to hear her sing
They'd drop some money in her can
She'd shake that tamborine
And they called her Christmas Carol
There's not a Christmas song
She couldn't sing i remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and
Her beat up tamborine
She wore that same old ragged
Coat all the year around
Lived all alone in a little
Shack just outside of town
She'd stand there singing "Jingle Bells" in
The heat of the summer time
Yes, every day was Christmas
In Carol Johnson's mind
And they called her Christmas Carol
There's not a Christmas song
She couldn't sing i remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and
Her beat up tamborine
But I can still remember that
Twinkle in her eye
'Cause Carol kept a secret from
The people passing by
That secret was a mystery they
Talked about so long
How each Christmas eve those gifts showed
Up outside the children's home
That was forty years ago, or fifty I believe
But still the toys keep showing up
Each year on Christmas eve
I wonder if we'll ever know just
Who took up the cause
Is it still Christmas Carol
Or is it Santa Claus?
And they called her Christmas Carol
There's not a Christmas song
She couldn't sing i remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and
Her beat up tamborine
