Saint ^CNick fell down the chimney right on cue With a big ole' bag of gifts for me and ^Gyou I was ^Fcrying by the Christmas tree with a bottle of Pa^Dtron This ain't no time of year to be a^Clone

[Verse 2] He said, 'You look like hell, boy where's your better half?'

I said, 'She's gone and I don't think she's coming ^Gback' 'Did she have some ^Flast minute shopping, that just couldn't be post^Dponed?' This ain't no time of year to be a^Clone

[Chorus]

Well, I got ^Fjust one wish On my ^AmChristmas list Oh ^Dmbaby, how I ^Gwish you were ^Chere I want ^Fchestnuts roasting, good friends toasting ^CHealth and happiness But it ^D7won't mean a thing without you ^Ghere

[Verse 3]

He said, '^CChristmas without love and tenderness Well, that's just a hollow holiday at ^Gbest Son, it takes ^Ftwo to tango underneath that mistle^Dtoe This ain't no time of year to be a^Clone'

[Lead Break] [Chorus]

Oh, I got ^Fjust one wish On my ^AmChristmas list I'd give ^Dmanything to ^Ghave you here with ^Cme I want ^FYule logs, reindeer, eggnog, good cheer ^CFive golden rings Not ^D7Kris Kringle's singles thera^Gpy

[Verse 4]

So ^Cme and old Saint Nick kicked back a few And we both agreed, he ain't no substitute for ^Gyou And I ^Fheard him say, as he pulled his sleigh back out into the ^Dcold 'This ain't no time of year to be a^Clone' 'Ho, ho, this ain't no time of year to be a^Clone'
