Merry Christmas From The Family

Alright

Well, uh

Tonight, we have somethin' a little special

Seein' as how it's the Christmas season and all

Thought we'd get everybody in the holiday spirit, and, uh

We have a special guest that's gonna come out

We haven't really met her yet, but, um

Hello, everybody, how are ya?

Hello, Detroit, Motor City, hello

How you girls doin'?

Hi, good

Good to see ya, nice to know ya

Y'all know me? I'm Trixie Dixie

Trixie Dixie?

Yep

Nice to meet you

Thank you, um

There was a contest down at my local 7-Eleven

Down in there Arkansas where I live

Whoever could hold on to a Dixie Chicks poster

For the longest amount of time got to perform here in Detroit

Right

I held onto that sucker for fourteen days

Fourteen days

Fourteen days, I didn't eat, I didn't sleep

I wore Depends undergarments

Really?

So if I had to go to the bathroom

I just went right there, no one even knew it

Fourteen days (Fourteen days)

That's dedication

So now I'm here to do a little song with y'all (Okay)

Somethin' I wrote a few years back

Hope y'all enjoy it

Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk

At our Christmas party

We were drinkin' champagne punch and

Homemade eggnog

Little sister brought her new boyfriend

He was a Mexican

We didn't know what to think of him

Until he sang "Feliz Navidad," "Feliz Navidad"

That means "Merry Christmas" in español

That's what it means, sure does

Brother Ken brought his kids with him

The three from his first wife Lynn

And the two identical twins

From his second wife Mary Nell

He also brought his third wife, Kay (Uh-huh)

Who talks all about AA

Chain smokin' while the stereo plays

"Noel, Noel, the First Noel"

Here we go

Carve the turkey, turn the ballgame on

Mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone

Send somebody to the Quik-Pak store

We need some ice and an extension cord

A can of bean dip and some Diet Rite

A box of tampons and some Marlboro Lights

Hallelujah, everybody say "cheese"

Merry Christmas from the family

Woo

Fran and Rita drove from Harlogen

I can't remember how I'm kin to them

But when they tried to plug their motor home in

They blew our Christmas lights

Cousin David knew just what went wrong

So we waited out on our front lawn

He threw the breaker and the lights came on

And we sang "Silent night, oh, silent night"

"Oh, Holy night"

Carve the turkey, turn the ballgame on

Make Bloody Marys 'cause we all want one

Send somebody to the Stop-N-Go

We need a can of cheese and a can of fake snow

A bag of corn nuts and some Diet Sprite

A box of tampons and some Salem Lights

Hallelujah, everybody say "cheese"

Merry Christmas from the family

Big endin', girls

Feliz Navidad

Merry Christmas, y'all

Merry Christmas, God bless you

God bless you, Dixie Chicks

God bless you, band

That was excellent

I'd love to stay, but I gotta go

You do

I got songs to write I love you (I love you)

I love you, I love all of you, I love you

I love Detroit, the Motor City

I love you people
