LYRICS:
I rode up in those hills like when we all used to go
Cut a tree like the ones that we used to, alone
Behind the old sorrel mare I dragged it down off the slope
Trimmed it in the corner with tinsel and hoped
I ain’t heard from my son and I won’t, I expect
The other’s flight it was cancelled, at least that’s what he said
My daughter’s taking her kids again to Maui this year
I guess I don’t blame her, pretty cold around here
Thank Christ for these horses or I’d be here at home
Eighty years old spending Christmas alone
The blizzard is howling, the night it grows near
It’s just me and the ponies for Christmas this year.
It’s bitterly cold, there’s three feet of snow
And this wouldn’t be home if the wind didn’t blow
Can’t get out of the yard, I’m snowed in with the drifts
And no one is coming to open these gifts
If I were my father I’d hitch up the team
Take the sleigh to the neighbour’s, brandy and cream
But that world is gone, it’s all disappeared
It’s just me and the ponies for Christmas this year
Thank Christ for these horses or I’d be here at home
Eighty years old spending Christmas alone
The blizzard is howling, the night it grows near
It’s just me and the ponies for Christmas this year
This old barn is still standing, not much longer I think
I can see the North Star through the holes in the chink
Tonight it’s oats for my pals and me a bottle of cheer
It’s just me and the ponies for Christmas this year
