Christmas In Dixie
Kenny Chesney · All I Want For Christmas Is A Real Good Tan [2003]
By now in New York City, there's snow on the ground
And out in California, the sunshine's falling down
And, maybe down in Memphis, Graceland's all in lights
And in Atlanta, Georgia, there's peace on earth tonight.
Chorus:
Chirstmas in Dixie, it's snowin' in the pines
Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight.
It's windy in Chicago. The kids are out of school
There's magic in Motown. The city's on the move
In Jackson, Mississippi, to Charlotte, Caroline
And all across the nation, it's the peaceful Christmas time.
Chorus:
Chirstmas in Dixie, it's snowin' in the pines
Merry Christmas from Dixie, to everyone tonight.
And from Fort Payne, Alabama
And Knoxville, Tennessee
Merry Christmas tonight...
