In 1997 Ray Stevens released a Ray Stevens Christmas Songs album called 'Through a Different Window'. Most of the songs on this Ray Stevens Christmas album are funny Christmas Songs making fun of Christmas and getting with families around Christmas time. I won't be Home for Christmas was one of the funniest Christmas Songs on the album. Below is the Lyrics to Ray Stevens' I wont be Home for Christmas song.
About Ray Stevens' I won't be Home for Christmas
Ray Stevens' I won't be Home for Christmas is about an average 'red neck' family where a guy is fed up with the Southern tradition of having to entertain everyone in the family and everyone is taking advantage of his hospitality. It's really is a normal way in Nashville, TN, (Where Ray is from) for most families. Every line tells the truth that people in the South would admit & laugh about to each other, but deny completely to outsiders.
The guy in the Ray Stevens' I won't be Home for Christmas song is probably Ray Stevens himself. If you are not familiar with how the traditional Southern families are at Christmas, this is a good song to get to know it.
Ray Stevens I wont be Home for Christmas Lyrics
Well now - it's hard for me to catch the Christmas spirit
b'coz every time that I get near it
I envision the invasion is on its way
The same thing happens every year
my folks come from far and near
to terrorize my home on Christmas day
And, you know - it wouldn't be so bad
if all that came was mom and dad
but nooooo the whole fam-damn'ily has got to show
Uncles, sisters, brothers, cousins, nieces and nephews by the dozen
don't these folks have any place else to go?
And, and what a bunch of near do well
and they all got sad tales to tell
so saying no is something I just can't do
(truncated...)
Chorus
So, I won't be home for Christmas
Don't count on staying with me
Noo, I won't be home for Christmas
I'm not telling anybody where I'm going to be
You have to..
Thrash your own house
Eat your own food
Go out and buy your own Christmas tree
Cos, I won't be home for Christmas
So, don't count on staying with me.
