Lyrics:
It's that time of year
When we all get together
And afterwards we wonder why
'Cause the later it gets
The drunker we are
Someone always ends up in a fight
Well you'd think that a family
Could try to get along
At least this one day a year
But the fact is we can't,
We never will
So pass me one more Christmas beer.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em
Get drunk and annoy 'em
I'm usually the one who tries to hold it together,
But someone smoked up all my Christmas cheer
We don't know any better
Same thing, different year
God bless the family, can't wait 'til it's over
Pass me one more Christmas beer.
Scotty's got JB down in a head-lock
Mike just got decked in the hall
Over somethin' 'bout NASCAR and who had the fast car
And who put Junior into that wall
Well grandma's bitchin'
About men in the kitchen
It's a good thing my grandpa can't hear
I've tried to stay sober but this party ain't over
So pass me one more Christmas beer.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em
Get drunk and annoy 'em
I'm usually the one who tries to hold it together,
But someone smoked up all my Christmas cheer
We don't know any better
Same thing, different year
God bless the family, can't wait 'til it's over
Pass me one more Christmas beer.
We don't know any better
Same thing, different year
Hallelujah and Happy {hic} Holidays
Pass me one more Christmas beer.
