From early in November[00:00:32]

To the last week of December[00:00:33]

I got money matters weighing me down[00:00:36]

Oh the music may be merry [00:00:39]

But it's only temporary[00:00:41]

I know Santa Claus is coming to town[00:00:43]

In the days I work my day job [00:00:47]

In the nights I work my night[00:00:49]

But it all comes down to working man's pay[00:00:51]

Getting ready I'm getting ready [00:00:55]

Ready for Christmas Day[00:00:58]

Getting ready for Christmas Day[00:01:03]

And let me tell you namely [00:01:05]

The undertaker he's getting ready for your body[00:01:07]

Not only that the jailer he's getting ready for you[00:01:11]

Christmas day Hmm And not only the jailer [00:01:17]

But the lawyer the police force[00:01:22]

Now getting ready for Christmas day [00:01:24]

And I want you to bear it in mind[00:01:28]

I got a nephew in Iraq [00:01:32]

It's his third time back[00:01:35]

But it's ending up the way it began[00:01:37]

With the luck of a beginner[00:01:41]

He'll be eating turkey dinner[00:01:43]

On some mountain top in Pakistan[00:01:45]

Getting ready oh we're getting ready[00:01:49]

For the power and the glory[00:01:57]

And the story of the Christmas day[00:01:59]

Getting ready for Christmas day [00:02:03]

Done made it up in your mind that I'm going [00:02:06]

New York Philadelphia Chicago [00:02:09]

I'm going on a trip getting ready [00:02:13]

For Christmas day [00:02:17]

But when Christmas come [00:02:19]

Nobody knows where you'll be [00:02:21]

You might ask me [00:02:24]

I may be layin' in some lonesome grave [00:02:27]

Getting ready for Christmas day[00:02:31]

Getting ready oh we're getting ready[00:02:51]

For the power and the glory[00:02:58]

And the story of the Christmas day[00:03:01]

Yes we're getting ready[00:03:06]

Getting ready ready for your prayers [00:03:08]

I'm going and see my relatives in a distant land [00:03:11]

Getting ready getting ready for Christmas day[00:03:16]

If I could tell my Mom and Dad[00:03:21]

That the things we never had[00:03:24]

Never mattered we were always okay[00:03:26]

Getting ready oh ready for Christmas day[00:03:30]

Ready getting ready[00:03:39]

For the power and the glory[00:03:45]

And the story of the Christmas day[00:03:47]
