Two-Step 'Round the Christmas Tree

(Suzy Bogguss)

There's a wonderous sight and a joyful sound

Every Christmas Eve in a western town

Gather up the kids all the friends and family

'Cause the holly's hung and the candle's bright

Tuning up a fiddle on a moon lit night

Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas tree.

There's a jolly man in a bright red suit

Did you ever see a Santa in cowboy boots

Twirling across the floor spurs a-jingling merri-ly

As they sing those carols soft and low

We'll all be shouting out cotton-eyed Joe

Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas tree

Waiting 'neath the mistletoe you'll never get a kiss

I never move that slow there's to much I could miss

"Cause a western girl can't be still

and a silent night is not for me

Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree

Red Bandanas, kelly green,

Silver buckles on a new blue jeans

Jumpin' 'round the room to a yule tide melo-dy

I'm gonna be ready when Santa's comes

But I'm gonna be dancing til he does

Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas tree

Waiting 'neath the mistletoe you'll never get a kiss

I never move that slow there's to much I could miss

"Cause a western girl can't be still

and a silent night is not for me

Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree

Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree
