George Tomsco & The Fireballs
"Merry Christmas Mom & Dad" lyrics

VERSE 1
The train pulls away
at 2:10 in the morning
and I’m on my way for Christmas
to the mountains of New Mexico
the Kansas City lights
fade away behind me in the darkness
and the cold steel wheels beneath me
sounds like music in my ears
that takes me home

CHORUS
Merry Christmas Mom & Dad
I’m so glad that I can be here
even though it’s been a long year
everything is alright now

Merry Christmas Mom & Dad
I hope you know that I love you
and my thoughts and prayers are with you
every day throughout the year


VERSE 2
But time passes fast and good things
just don’t last, and I’ll be leavin’
cause music is my way of life and
when it calls, you know I got to go
I’ll try to be home soon - but if I see there’s no way I can make it you can bet your bottom dollar I’ll be home for Christmas in a year
