about

A little song I wrote one Christmas Eve to cheer myself up. Its since become a family classic.

lyrics

TRAILER PARK CHRISTMAS

Well it’s Christmas time in the trailer park
A man in red standing out in the dark
I don’t think it’s Santa cause he’s got Gun
He got visions of sugar crack in his head
Better let em in or we’ll wind up dead
Thanks for the milk an cookies I gotta run!

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year too, Merry Christmas to you!

Sound on the roof must be the bats
Mice in the bedroom really are rats
But I don’t tell the kids cause they might get scared
Well the heaters on the blink, propane’s low
Phone gone dead I got a bag of coal
But Santa left me a case a beer!

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year too, Merry Christmas to you!

Wish I was Santa given away toys
Dollies for girls, guns for boys
Just like it was in the good ol daze
Well people think I’m strange but I just smile
Ain’t paid the rent in a helluva while
But I will when I come out of this haze
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year too, Merry Christmas to you!

Well it’s closing time at the local bar
Gotta pick up the wife, it aint too far
Haven’t seen that gal I a couple o days
It’s a special night I got planned
Roasting peanuts round a garbage can
To all a good night jingle all the way!

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to, Merry Christmas to you

The dog stopped barking about an hour ago
Must be 25 ft of snow
Got no shovel hope we get some sun
Well the the truck got jacked have to use the sleigh
What’s that Santa Claus he said?
Ho Ho Ho an a bottle of rum?

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year too, Merry Christmas to you.
