Loretta Lynn Lyrics
"I Won't Decorate Your Christmas Tree"

Well, I wrote to Santa just today
I told him I don't plan to stay
'Cause you've been bad yes you've been treatin' me wrong
So listen to me, here's Christmas cheers
Because you won't be with me here
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year.

You can stay out there to toast and cheer
With all of your friends
Don't hang on me a bein' here
When you come back again
Your bags are burnt out and your fancy don't shine
I just won't be a waitin' this time
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I won't be here this Christmas Day
I wouldn't give a present anyway
But have a good time and be concerned about me
I'm going back to my mom and dad
They love me more than you ever had
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year.

You can stay out there to toast and cheer
With all of your friends
Don't hang on me a bein' here
When you come back again
Your bags are burnt out and your fancy don't shine
I just won't be a waitin' this time
I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year.

No, I won't decorate your Christmas tree this year...
