Merry Christmas, I Tried Lyrics
[00:19.08] Outta time, outta money, outta patience, with a smile on my face
[00:25.23] Cuz it's Christmas time again and I thought that I had more time to waste
[00:32.52] This wasn't my intention, might need an intervention again
[00:36.74] (Oh no, no, no)
[00:39.70] Oh why did I wait? hesitate? I think I'm losing my mind
[00:43.88] (Oh he's huffin' n' puffin and he's full of stuffin')
[00:47.07] They're saying I'm too late, but decorations are on aisle nine
[00:50.92] (I hope she wants some tinsel, not a diamond or a crystal)
[00:54.13] They got me payin' top dollar so she won't know I forgot her again
[00:58.12] (Oh no, no, no)
[01:01.71] The only place that's open's the convenience store
[01:04.79] Where all the dad's are shopping cuz they didn't before
[01:08.31] I wonder what my wife got for the kids and for me
[01:11.74] I should probably get something for under the tree
[01:16.87] "It's delayed, I swear I paid! It'll be here in a few more days"
[01:21.05] (She isn't buyin', she can tell it when you're lyin')
[01:24.22] I thought that I'd recovered right until I saw the look on her face
[01:28.12] (Come on baby, listen, tis the season for forgivin')
[01:31.28] I'm thinking that I shoulda, coulda, woulda, but I didn't again
[01:35.59] (Oh no, no, no)
[01:38.60] The only thing that's open is the grocery store
[01:42.13] With all the papa's hustlin' just to get in the door
[01:45.76] I wonder what my wife is gonna do to me
[01:49.46] When she opens up the oven mitt from under the tree
[02:15.99] The only thing that's open is the old liquor store
[02:19.62] The kids have made their lists, if it's not on it's a bore
[02:23.18] I wonder if my wife is gonna get any sleep
[02:26.49] Before the kid's wake us up when they run to the tree
[02:31.46] Made it through another year and I'm thinking that I did alright
[02:35.53] (Boy, that was a close one, he felt the walls were closing)
[02:38.94] Cuz Christmas ain't about the things you get, it's just the fact that I tried
[02:42.84] (Quicker every year, and he's happy that it's here)
[02:46.27] But if you're wanting something more, I'll run to the bargain store
[02:49.55] I heard they got a sale on November's fall décor
[02:53.19] Tried everyone I know but they all just hit ignore
[02:56.68] I'm wishing that I would've listened, but I didn't again
[03:03.03]
[00:25.23] Cuz it's Christmas time again and I thought that I had more time to waste
[00:32.52] This wasn't my intention, might need an intervention again
