It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home

I've been sitting by the phone, waiting for her call
One short ring and I'll be gone to get my baby doll
We're gonna rock around the clock down at the Legion hall
I can't wait to hear her say, "Merry Christmas, merry away"

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home

I wrote a letter to Santa Claus, just like I was a little child
And all I need is a little love, all wrapped up in her smile
I've been good but I've been better, just a little while
Must have read between the lines, it won't be long, you'll still be mine

It's gonna be a merry Christmas
It's gonna be a merry Christmas

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
