[Verse 1]
AIt was Christmas DEve, babe
In the Gdrunk tank
An old man Dsaid to me
"Won't see Aanother one"
And then he Dsang a song
'The Rare Old GMountain Dew'
I turned my Dface away
And Gdreamed aAbout Dyou
[Verse 2]
AGot on a Dlucky one
Came in eighGteen-to-one
I've got a Dfeeling
This year's for Ame and you
So, Happy DChristmas
I love you, Gbaby
I can see a Dbetter time
WhenG all our Adreams come Dtrue
(faster)

(faster, more of an Irish jig beat)

[Verse 3]
"They've got Dcars big as Abars
They've got Bmrivers of Ggold
But the Dwind goes right through you;
It's no place for the Aold
When you Dfirst took my Bmhand
On a Dcold Christmas GEve
You Dpromised me Broadway
Was Awaiting for Dme
[Verse 4]
"You were Dhandsome!"
"DYou were pretty, DQueen of New York ACity"
When the Dband finished Gplaying
They Ahowled out for Dmore
DSinatra was Dswinging
DAll the drunks, they were Asinging
We Dkissed on a Gcorner
Then Adanced through the Dnight
[Hook]
The Gboys of the N Y BmP D Achoir
Were Dsinging 'Galway BmBay'
And the Dbells were Gringing Aout
For Christmas Dday

[Verse 5]
"DYou're a bum, Dyou're a punk"
"DYou're an old slut on Ajunk
Lying Dthere almost Gdead
On a Adrip in that Dbed"
"You Dscumbag, you Dmaggot
You cheap lousy Afaggot
Happy DChristmas, your Garse
I pray AGod it's our Dlast"
[Hook]
The Gboys of the N Y BmP D Achoir
Still Dsinging "Galway BmBay"
And the Dbells are Gringing Aout
For Christmas Dday

[Verse 6]
"AI could have Dbeen someone"
"DWell, so could Ganyone
You took my Ddreams from me
When I first Afound you"
"AI kept them Dwith me, babe
I put them Gwith my own
Can't make it Dall alone
I've built my Gdreams aAround Dyou"

The Gboys of the N Y BmP D Achoir
Still Dsinging "Galway BmBay"
