Merry Christmas From The Family..

[C.Ann]

Another "fun" holiday song.. Can't remember who sings it though..

Merry Christmas From The Family

Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk
At our Christmas party
We were drinkin' champagne punch
And homemade eggnog
Little sister brought her new boyfriend
He was a Mexican
We didn't know what to think of him
Til he sang Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad

Brother Ken brought his kids with him
The three from his first wife Lynn
And the two identical twins
From his second wife Mary Nell
Of course he brought his new wife Kaye
Who talks all about AA
Chain smokin' while the stereo plays
Noel, Noel, The first Noel

Carve the turkey turn the ball game on
Mix Margaritas when the eggnog's gone
Send somebody to the Quik-Pak store
We need some ice and an extension cord
A can of bean dip and some Diet Rite
A box of pampers , some Marlboro Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family

Fran and Rita drove from Harlingen
I can't remember how I'm kin to them
But when they tried to plug their motor home in
They blew our christmas lights
Cousin David knew just what went wrong
So we all waited on our front lawn
He threw the breaker and the lights came on
And we sang Silent Night
Oh Silent Night o' holy night

Carve the turkey turn the ballgame on
Mix Bloody Marys cause we all want one
Send somebody to the Stop 'n Go
We need some celery and a can of fake snow
A bag of lemons and some Diet Sprite
A box of midol, some Salem Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family

Robert Earl Keen sings that... his family sounds a lot like mine.

There's even a book to go along with it.

Anyone know the words to:

"Grandma got runover by a reindeer"
happened just last Christmas Eve

(sorry can't remember the rest)

Anyone know the words to:

"Grandma got runover by a reindeer"
---------------------------------------------

Here you go:

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer

Grandma got run over by a reindeer


Walking home from our house Christmas eve.


You can say there's no such thing as Santa,


But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.




She'd been drinkin' too much egg nog,


And we'd begged her not to go.


But she'd left her medication,


So she stumbled out the door into the snow.




When they found her Christmas mornin',


At the scene of the attack.


There were hoof prints on her forehead,


And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back.




Grandma go run over by a reindeer,


Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve.


You can say there's no such thing as Santa,


But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.




Now were all so proud of Grandpa,


He's been takin' this so well.


See him in there watchin' football,


Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle.




It's not Christmas without Grandma.


All the family's dressed in black.


And we just can't help but wonder:


Should we open up her gifts or send them back?




Grandma got run over by a reindeer,


Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve.


You can say there's no such thing as Santa,


But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.




Now the goose is on the table


And the pudding made of pig.


And a blue and silver candle,


That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.




I've warned all my friends and neighbours.


Better watch out for yourselves."


They should never give a license,


To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.




Grandma got run over by a reindeer,


Walkin' home from our house, Christmas eve.


You can say there's no such thing as Santa,


But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

The Dixie Chicks sang "Merry Christmas from the Family" on one of Rosie O'Donnell's Christmas albums. I crack up every time I hear it!

 

[simba928]

I have the Rosie Christmas CD that the Dixie Chicks sang it on. My dad loves it. He turns up the stereo in the car and sings it and makes everyone else in the car sing it with him. That CD isn't in the car yet, but I have a feeling he'll be asking for it soon. LOL.
