Lyrics for Song: Shimmy Down The Chimney (Fill Up My Stocking)
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Alison Krauss (And Union Station)
Tonight, I waited but my heart is so cold
'Cause you never stay more than a minute, so I'm told
I know you're just doing your job
But what am I supposed to do?
When all I want for Christmas, darling, is to be with you
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
But when I offer you some Christmas greetings
You just keep on walking, yeah
I'm not asking for a miracle, just a night
And if you just look in my eyes, you just might
There'll be no other woman who'll treat you like I can
(Come on over here)
I'll be your loving, darling, you'll be my loving man
Oh, I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
But when I offer you some Christmas greetings
You just keep on walking
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
But when I offer you some Christmas greetings
You just keep on walking
(Keep on walking)
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
You just keep on walking
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
I watch you fill up my stocking
I watch you shimmy down the chimney, baby
