A simple southern Christmas in the bayou, poetry. Louisiana bayou country.

It’s gonna be a simple southern Christmas here.

All I want from Santa is some egg nog, bourbon, and beer.

I’m gonna wait on Santa, Christmas Eve night,

and when he’s not lookin’ I just might,

steal his reindeer.

It’s gonna be a simple southern Christmas here.

I’m sending out my Christmas cheer.

I’m gonna sit on my front porch swing and sing.

It will be a good thing to hear those jingle bells ring.

I thought I seen Santa on the backwoods bayou road,

but instead it was a big fat toad.

It’s a wonderful simple southern Christmas here.

Santa just brought me some egg nog, bourbon, and beer.

When he wasn’t lookin’ I stole his reindeer.

So now I can deliver my Christmas cheer.

But hurry, hurry, I’m in a rush.

Got to give that reindeer a little push.

Got to go, got to go.

Got to get home to fix my gumbo.

It is Christmas day,

and I’m in a rush I must say.

It’s gonna be a simple southern Christmas here.

Just add egg nog, bourbon, and beer.

Mix it up with some Christmas cheer.

I’m ready for Christmas every year.
