I'm gonna be a modern day drifter. Get out while I can. Gonna trade in this life I've been livin'. For a pocket full of sand. And a modern day drifter don't have to tell no one his plans.
Turn out the lights. We just need the lights from the tree. The kids are in bed, baby it's just you and me. Side by side, the fire is bright, on this oh so blessed night.
Ain't it funny, I haven't seen you in years. And all those tears I cried, finally dried up. And blew away. . Ain't it funny, you once were glad. Just to have me near, to calm your fears.
Up and down the street tonight. There's a Santa Claus at every light. Trees for sale on the corner lot. Waiting for a home. . Everywhere across the land.
