Gift of the Blues

Loretta Lynn · Christmas Without Daddy [Universal] [1995]

I hope you had a very, very merry

And that your seasons wishes came true

But mine will be quite the contrary

For I recieved a gift of the blues.



I travel miles and miles to see my baby

All this way just to share his charms

Travel miles and miles to find my baby

Wrapped up so neatly in someone else's arms.



I hope you had a cool and a frantic

We laughed as resolutions were few

But there are those of us near panic

We're the ones who got a gift of the blues.



I travel miles and miles to find my baby

All this way just to share his charms

Travel miles and miles to find my baby

Wrapped up so neatly in someone else's arms.



I hope you had a very very merry

And that your seasons wishes came true

But mine will be quite the contrary

For I recieved a gift of the blues...
