They told me not to run in the kitchen
To bundle up and go outside
Not to come home until I heard a bell ring
Or when I heard Crosby sigh:
Merry Christmas
Happy New Year
Just like the ones I used to know
When Aunt Jane set the table in Iowa long ago
Peas and macaroni
Oh, and Jello, don't you know
That they qualify as salad
Where I come from
I swear it's so
Oh I wish I was there
Every mile hard to bear
So I'll overcook the greens
And put marshmallows in everything
I, I,
Wish I could go home this Christmas
I used to stumble down the stairs
Sage in the air
In my slippers and robe
To Find stock on the stove
Grandma Ida
And Grandpa Pete
Kissing underneath the mistletoe
We'd drive from Waterloo to Saratoga
Singing all the way
At the top of our lungs about Santa
His reindeer
And his sleigh
Now I'm alone with my mashed potatoes
Just me myself and I
Wish I could skate away on a river of gravy to my grandma's house tonight
Oh I wish I was there
Every mile hard to bear
So I cry cry cry in a whole pumpkin pie
Ohhhhh I, I,
Wish I could go home this Christmas
Oooooohhhhhh I, I,
Wish I could go home this Christmas
