Paxton, Tom - Christmas In Shelter Lyrics
I see the snow on the street
It's turnin' black round my feet
A radio tells me more's on the way
A Santa Claus rings his bell
He has an old mothball smell
Christmas in the shelter
Never thought I'd see
Some of last year's tinsel
On a scrawny Christmas tree
Christmas in the shelter
Here it comes again
But where's the peace on earth
And goodwill to all men
When you've plenty to eat
And your plates piled as high as you like
But it's a whole different tune
When a soup kitchen spoon
Is dishing your dinner tonight
Christmas in the shelter
Never thought I'd see
Some of last year's tinsel
On a scrawny Christmas tree
Christmas in the shelter
Here it comes again
But where's the peace on earth
And goodwill to all men
I never saw Bethlehem
But I've been thinkin' 'bout them
Bedded down in old wooden shack
I pull my sweater up tight
I've got shelter tonight
And y'know I'm grateful for that
Christmas in the shelter
Never thought I'd see
Some of last year's tinsel
On a scrawny Christmas tree
Christmas in the shelter
Here it comes again
But where's the peace on earth
And goodwill to all men
Where's the peace on earth
And goodwill to all men
