when christmas comes a calling in memphis Tennessee
wakes me up in side sets my spirit free
snow flakes they are falling pure and so white
lighting up the roof tops on a christmas night

children building snowmen with there hearts a glow
having lots of fun playing in the snow
everything so peaceful tranquil as can be
time for peace on earth in memphis tennessee

waking up at daybreak in the early morn
open up there presents as they begin to yawn
lots of smiling faces full of christmas glee
christmas time is here in memphis tennessee
