It was Christmas Eve babe,
there there on Mountain Dew
I turned my face away and
Got on a lucky one, came in 18 to 1
So happy Christmas, I love you baby
when all our dreams come true
They've got cars, biggest cars,
they've got rivers of gold
there's no place for the old
When you first took my hand
on this cold Christmas Eve
Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome, you were pretty,
When the band finished playing,
they hollered out for more
all the drunks, they were singing
and danced through the night
And the boys from the NYPD choir
were singing Callway Bay,
and the bells were ringing out
You're a bum, you're a punk,
you're an old slut on junk
Happy Christmas, me arse,
And the boys from the NYPD choir
And the bells were ringing out
La la la la la la, la la la la la la,
I could have been someone,
You took my dreams from me,
I built my dreams around you
And the boys from the NYPD choir
And the bells were ringing out
When all our dreams come true
