Dreaming of a Green Christmas
.
I'm dreaming of a green Christmas
With girls in bathing-suit in sight
On the beach they're walking
Their eyes are talking
To me – only man in sight
For me, the only white Christmas
Comes from the sun that's burning bright
Neverending winters be darned
Snow for me has lost its Christmas charm
I'm dreaming of a green Christmas
With sunshine on my barbecue
Steaks and burgers grilling
And friends are milling
About – drinking wine and stout
My girl-friend wants a white Christmas
But with white Christmases I'm through
After years of winter galore
I can't bear the sight of snow no more!
I'm dreaming of a green Christmas
A quiet Christmas with my wife
In the oven simmers
Our turkey dinner
We're so glad that we're alive
This morning brought a white Christmas
But I've cleared every speck of snow
Since my days in Stalag 13
I prefer my Christmas to be green!
