lyrics

I ain't gonna lie in bed thinkin any more
I ain't gonna come back clawin at your door
I ain't gonna settle down
I'm going out to paint the town
Red and green for Christmas

I'm turnin off the TV I'm goin out to play
I swear you won't see me I'll run the other way
Nothings gonna slow me down
I'm goin out to paint the town
Red and green for Christmas

And I'll come first and you'll come last this Christmas
And though I wish you happiness this Christmas
May our parties never clash
Especially at night
And may your days be merry this Christmas

May our parties never clash
especially at night
And may your days be merry this Christmas

I ain't gonna lie in bed thinkin any more
First you say it's over then you're at your door
I ain't gonna settle down
I'm going out to paint the town
Nothin's gonna stop us now

Red and green for Christmas
And I'll come first and you'll come last this Christmas
And though I wish you happiness this Christmas
May our parties never clash
Especially at night
And may your days be merry
May your days be merry
Red and green for Christmas night
