'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house
Not a creature was sober, especially not my spouse
I got 47 dollars in the god darn bank
Honey, how do you possibly think
We're gonna get the presents and the light bill paid?
How in the hell we gonna deck these halls?
You and me both been workin' like dogs
Biting each other's heads plum off
Makin' decorations out of shotgun shells
Makin' it up as we go
Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up
Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal
I got 27 people comin' over this house
And I can't get you off of that couch
And you wonder why I keep runnin' my mouth
Get up the holler, cut a stem off a tree
While I'm goin' through mama's old recipes
If you get too drunk, you're gonna deal with me
Makin' decorations out of shotgun shells
Makin' it up as we go
Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up
Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal
Makin' decorations out of shotgun shells
Makin' it up as we go
Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up
Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal
Makin' somethin' out of nothin', so you better straighten up
Or all you're gonna get's a chunk of Harlan County coal
