Hard Candy Christmas
Dolly Parton · The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas [soundtrack]
Hey, maybe IÂ’ll dye my hair
Maybe IÂ’ll move somewhere
Maybe IÂ’ll get a car
Maybe IÂ’ll drive so far that IÂ’ll lose track
Me, IÂ’ll bounce right back
Maybe IÂ’ll sleep real late
Maybe IÂ’ll lose some weight
Maybe IÂ’ll clear my junk
Maybe IÂ’ll just get drunk on apple wine
(chorus)
Me, IÂ’ll be just fine and dandy
Lord itÂ’s like a hard candy Christmas
IÂ’m barely getting through tomorrow
But, still I wonÂ’t let sorrow bring me way down.
(repeat chorus)
Hey, maybe IÂ’ll learn to sew
Maybe IÂ’ll just lie low
Maybe IÂ’ll hit the bars
Maybe IÂ’ll count the stars until dawn
Me, I will go on
Maybe IÂ’ll settle down
Maybe IÂ’ll just leave town
Maybe IÂ’ll have some fun
Maybe IÂ’ll meet someone and make him mine
(chorus) 2x
Maybe IÂ’ll move somewhere
Maybe IÂ’ll get a car
Maybe IÂ’ll drive so far that IÂ’ll lose track
Me, IÂ’ll bounce right back
Maybe IÂ’ll sleep real late
Maybe IÂ’ll lose some weight
Maybe IÂ’ll clear my junk
Maybe IÂ’ll just get drunk on apple wine
(chorus)
Me, IÂ’ll be just fine and dandy
Lord itÂ’s like a hard candy Christmas
IÂ’m barely getting through tomorrow
But, still I wonÂ’t let sorrow bring me way down.
(repeat chorus)
Hey, maybe IÂ’ll learn to sew
Maybe IÂ’ll just lie low
Maybe IÂ’ll hit the bars
Maybe IÂ’ll count the stars until dawn
Me, I will go on
Maybe IÂ’ll settle down
Maybe IÂ’ll just leave town
Maybe IÂ’ll have some fun
Maybe IÂ’ll meet someone and make him mine
(chorus) 2x
