Maybe California, maybe Tinsel Town's for me
Where the love circles around us like the gifts around our tree
Every now and then I get a wanderin' urge to see
A tender Tennessee Christmas, is the only Christmas for me
Well, they say in L.A. it's a warm holiday, it's th only place to be
Well, I know there's more snow up in Colorado than my roof will ever see
Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve
Another tender Tennessee Christmas, the only Christmas for me

Another tender Tennessee Christmas, the only Christmas for me
But a tender Tennessee Christmas is the only Christmas for me
There's a parade there, we'd have it made there
Sure sounds exciting, awfully inviting, still I think I'm gonna keep

Give me the laughter, I'm gonna choose to keep
Well, I know there's more snow up in Colorado than my roof will ever see
Somebody said it's four feet deep but it doesn't matter
Where the love circles around us like th gifts around our tree
Rockies are callin', Denver snow fallin'

A tender Tennessee Christmas is the only Christmas for me
But a tender Tennessee Christmas is the only Christmas for me
