Merry Christmas Emily Lyrics - Cracker

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Emily, she was twenty-three 

Sitting on the ground under a dead palm tree 

6th and Speedway on Christmas Day 

It seemed like things were gonna go my way 

But we had some good times 

Drinking cheap wine and popping pills 

Spending the holidays 

Getting drunk at the rusty nail 

And then there's Emily from a good family 

They fucked up your head and they sent you to me 

"It's a Wonderful Life", is playing on the TV 

I think about you, do you still think about me 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

I still think about you, do you still thing about me 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

It might have seemed that I was down and out 

But my insurance claim was still paying out 

Well, you were heading back up while I was going down 

So I reformed the band to try to keep you around 

Then we had some bad times 

Drinking wine in the summer heat 

A couple loud arguments 

Standing in the middle of Congress St. 

Then there's Emily under that dead palm tree 

It's Christmas day and it's like 80 degrees 

I still think about you, do you still think about me 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

I still think about you, do you still think about me 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

I still think about you, do you still think about me 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

I still think about you, do you still think about me 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

Merry Christmas Emily 

I still think about you, do you still think about me
