There's a wondrous sight and a joyful sound
Every Christmas Eve in a western town
Gather up the kids
All the friends and family
'Cause the holly's hung and the candle's bright
Their tuning up the fiddle's on a moonlit night
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas tree
There's a jolly man in a bright red suit
Did you ever see a Santa in cowboy boots?
Twirling 'cross the floor
Spurs a-jingling merrily
As they sing those carols, soft and low
We'll all be shouting out "Cotton-eyed Joe"
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas Tree
Waiting 'neath the mistletoe
You'll never get a kiss
I never move that slow
There's too much I could miss
'Cause a western guy can't be still
And a silent night is not for me
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas Tree
Red bandanas, kelly green
Silver buckles on new blue jeans
Shuffling round the room
To a Yuletide melody
I'm gonna be ready when Santa comes
But I'm gonna be dancing till he does
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas Tree
Waiting 'neath the mistletoe
You'll never get a kiss
I never move that slow
There's too much I could miss
'Cause a western guy can't be still
And a silent night is not for me
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas Tree
Waiting 'neath the mistletoe
You'll never get a kiss
I never move that slow
There's too much I could miss
'Cause a western guy can't be still
And a silent night is not for me
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas Tree
Roll back the rug so we can
Two-step round the Christmas Tree
