Dave Mathews Band Christmas Song Lyrics

Christmas Song Lyrics

She was his girl; he was her boyfriend
She be his wife; take him as her
husband
A surprise on the way, any day, any day
One healthy little
giggling dribbling baby boy
The wise men came three made their way
To
shower him with love
While he lay in the hay
Shower him with love love
love
Love love love
Love love is all around

Not very much of his
childhood was known
Kept his mother Mary worried
Always out on his
own
He met another Mary for a reasonable fee, less than
Reputable as
known to be

His heart was full of love love love
Love love
love
Love love is all around
When Jesus Christ was nailed to the his
tree
Said "oh, Daddy-o I can see how it all soon will be
I came to
shed a little light on this darkening scene
Instead I fear I spill the blood
of my children all around"

The blood of our children all
around
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all
around
So the story goes, so I'm told
The people he knew were
Less than
golden hearted
Gamblers and robbers
Drinkers and jokers, all soul
searchers
Like you and me

Rumors insisited he soon would be
For
his deviations
Taken into custody by the authorities
Less informed than
he.
Drinkers and jokers. all soul searchers
Searching for love love
love
Love love love
Love love is all around

Preparations were
made
For his celebration day
He said "eat this bread and think of it
as me
Drink this wine and dream it will be
The blood of our children all
around
The blood of our children all around"
The blood of our
children all around

Father up above, why in all this anger have you
fill
Me up with love
Fill me love love love
Love love love
Love
love
And the blood of our children all around
