Trim This Tree

It's Christmastime in Nashville Lets honky-tonk neath the mistletoe We've been waiting all year long for Santa To hear them southbound sleigh bells toll We got the candles in the window Couple cans of spray-on snow I bet meemaw's spiking the eggnog Papaw's picking silent night on the banjo Got us a no nut fruit cake Know all the reindeer by heart In front of this Airbnb, there's a Joseph and Mary And Jesus lit up like a Walmart Let's spend Christmas in Nashville Invite the whole family For some holiday times in those southern pines So climb up this ladder Mama help me Trim this tree Trim this tree Let's trim it green and red gold and silver Hang some of them dollar tree ornaments on String a few of those neon lights that twinkle all night And lets carol some old cheating songs Rudolph's pulling our pedal tavern Over the river and through the woods Delivering toys to all the hillbilly boys and girl's At least the ones that's been good Let's spend Christmas in Nashville Invite the whole family For some holiday time in those southern pines So climb up this ladder Mama help me Trim this tree Trim this tree Christmastime is here in music city Fa-la-la-la Fa-la- la-la la-la Decorate your Christmas tree so pretty Now the stockings are hung by the deer rack Goo, goo, clusters set out by fire So that Jolly old St Nick gets an insulin kick To climb that old chimney higher We know the reason for the season Be with the ones you love Ring those jingle bells, and raise a little hell Before that January cold-spell comes Let's spend Christmas in Nashville No place I'd rather be Than here with mama and pop putting that star on top And all my kinfolk helping Trim this tree Trim this tree Trim this tree
