Papa’s Home (Christmas lyrics)

Transcribed by: Scott Holcomb

Papa’s hittin’ the road again
Takes his show cross-country for hire.
As the snow keeps fallin’ down,
Frosty’s gettin’ bigger,
Mom’s holding sister by the fire
Turning pages of photographs.
Warming their memories of Christmas past by the fire.
To the North Pole where some young wishes go,
Santa’s bride mends his coat, keeps him warm.
And the elves are very handy,
They’re always crackin’ jokes,
But no one makes her laugh so easy,
Tellin’ stories and forgettin’ time.
Take a look at the rest in her eyes
And never grow tired.
Papa’s driving past the night
He’s working his way to make it home
The old man gonna be outside
When the morning come, when the morning comes
Papa’s hittin’ the roof again
Hanging stars with a hammer and wire.
As the snow keeps fallin’ down,
Frosty’s gettin’ fatter,
Mom’s holding sister by the fire
Turning pages of photographs.
Warming their memories and falling asleep by the fire.
Papa’s he driving past the night
He’s working his way to make it home
The old man gonna be a sight
When the morning come, when the morning comes
Papa’s coming home
Papa’s coming home
Papa coming home…
