Jethro Tull
A Christmas Song
capo 2
Once in royal davids city
stood a lonely cattle shed,
Where a mother held her baby.
Youd do well to remember the things he later said.
When youre stuffing yourselves at the christmas parties,
Youll just laugh when I tell you to take a running jump.
Youre missing the point Im sure does not need making
That christmas spirit is not what you drink.
So how can you laugh when your own mothers hungry,
And how can you smile when the reasons for smiling are wrong?
And if I just messed up your thoughtless pleasures,
Remember, if you wish, this is just a christmas song.
