Half Blind King - The Day After Christmas Lyrics

In a city I don't know watching snowflakes fall
The flight schedules start to show, and it's not too hard to call
I ring my darling on the telephone just to say hello and tell her I won't make it back home from Buffalo until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas. I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
As the news is setting in and you start to cry
You curse my job and put me down, and you question; question why
I know garland and some mistletoe really heal your soul
So watch the Grinch and Miracle on the 34th until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
I promised I'd be with you there and I'd do all it took, but winter weather doesn't care what I do
I need to say a little prayer just to find something to book
Just know this cross is hard to bear without you
I see the snow is falling down from my hotel room
It seems the storm is not letting up anytime; anytime soon
See no Christmas lights or trees lit up; hear no carols sung
Just Maker's Mark and 7 Up til the day is done; until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
The day after Christmas
I can't make it home until the day after Christmas
