Four days left 'till Christmas I'm trying to get home to you I'm in Nevada in the mountains With the sky an eerie blue I'm driving past my limit Awake on pills and joe Trying to get back cross the country Trying to beat the coming snow
Snowflakes burst like little bombs On my windscreen in the night I can't see where I'm going My blades are frozen tight I'm driving to the image That is fading out of sight I'm gonna get back home for Christmas I'm gonna help make Christmas right
Three days now till Christmas In the Dakotas, stuck in snow My windows frozen open And you should hear the winter blow I'm not stopping 'till I get there Although you seem so far away I'm gonna be back home for Christmas I'll be with you on Christmas Day
Snowflakes burst like little bombs On my windscreen in the night I can't see where I'm going My blades are frozen tight I'm driving to the image That is fading out of sight I'm gonna get back home for Christmas I'm gonna help make Christmas right
Two days now till Christmas In Minnesota, freezing cold I've drunk five thermos' full of coffee I've put my bladder right on hold I'm blazing through the streamers Right through the drifts, some ten feet high I'm driving back to you for Christmas I'll be back home, unless I die
Snowflakes burst like little bombs On my windscreen in the night I can't see where I'm going My blades are frozen tight I'm driving to the image That is fading out of sight I'm gonna get back home for Christmas I'm gonna help make Christmas right
One more day till Christmas I've crossed the line into our state I'll make it home to you by morning So, Christmas breakfast...it's a date I've driven across the country To get back home, where I should be I'll be there when you both wake up Waiting by the Christmas tree
Snowflakes burst like little bombs On my windscreen in the night I can't see where I'm going My blades are frozen tight I'm driving to the image That is fading out of sight I'm gonna get back home for Christmas I'm gonna help make Christmas right
