Christmas Shopping

by Buck Owens and Charles H. Anderson



I got ten toy soldiers for Billy Joe

I got coloring book for Sue

I got a little toy train for Danny boy

And a cowboy suit for Lou

I got a talkin' baby doll for Cindy

I got a pair o'roller skates for Jane

And baby if we ever have any more kids

Christmas shoppin's gonna drive me insane



Gonna go this Christmas shopping

Well, I wonder if I'll ever get through

I tried to get everybody somethin' that they wanted

But I didn't know what to get you

I read the kids letters to Santa Claus

I read 'em over one by one

And I'd surely like to get my hands

On the fella that said Christmas shoppin's fun



I got ten toy soldiers for Billy Joe

I got a coloring book for Sue

I got a little toy train for Danny boy

And a cowboy suit for Lou

I got a talkin' baby doll for Cindy

I got a pair o'roller skates for Jane

And baby if we ever have any more kids

Christmas shoppin's gonna drive me insane



Well, I must've walked a hundred miles or more

I went to every store in town

My feet started swellin' and my head started achin'

And I couldn't find a place to sit down

But to tell you the truth well, I really don't mind it

I could even walk another mile

'Cause on Christmas mornin'

When they open up the presents

Well it's worth it just to see them smile



I got ten toy soldiers for Billy Joe

I got coloring book for Sue

I got a little toy train for Danny boy

And a cowboy suit for Lou

I got a talkin' baby doll for Cindy

I got a pair o'roller skates for Jane

And baby if we ever have any more kids

Christmas shoppin's gonna drive me insane...
