From early in November to the last week on December I got money no matter … me down Well the music made me merry by the solid temporary I know Santa Claus is coming to town In the days I work my day job In the nights I work my night But all comes down to waking on last day Getting ready ready for Christmas day
I got a nephew in Iraq It’s his third time back But we’re pretending .. again With the luck of a beginner He’ll be eating turkey dinner Somewhere .. in Pakistan
Getting ready oh we’re getting ready For the power and the glory and the story Of Christmas day (repeats)
If I could tell my mum and dad That the things that we never had Didn’t matter we were always ok Getting ready ready for Christmas day
Getting ready oh we’re getting ready For the power and the glory and the story Of Christmas day
