In my mind, I can hear the streetcar bells
The sound of tires over oyster shells
It's like music to my ears
I close my eyes and there's a Bayou and the live oak trees
And it's the only place I wanna be
This time of year
It ain't Christmas without the Creole
(Somehow it's not the same)
Where the ones I love all wait
(Mm, that's where they wait)
If I'm not there, there ain't gonna be no
No way for me to celebrate
It ain't Christmas without the Creole
(Where I was born and raised)
I got to be on the next plane
'Cause you know Christmas without the Creole
Is just another winter's day
Here I am, feels like a million miles from home
And I'm trying to put my best face on
'Cause I know the truth
That it ain't Christmas without the Creole
(Somehow it's not the same)
That's where the ones I love all wait
(Mm, that's where they wait)
If I'm not there, there ain't gonna be no
No way for me to celebrate
It ain't Christmas without the Creole
(Where I was born and raised)
I got to be on that next plane
'Cause you know Christmas without the Creole
Is just another winter's day
You know Christmas without the Creole
Is just another winter's day
Hey, hey
Oh, take me home
I wanna be home
'Cause it ain't Christmas without the Creole
I've got to be on the next plane
Oh
It's gonna be, gonna be just another winter's day
