Christmas Like Mama Used To Make It(as made famous by Tracy Byrd) - The Merry Christmas Players

It might seem a little bit old fashioned

And it may not be the trend of the year

Let's take the store bought feeling out of christmas

And have the kind that mama held so dear

Let's not have a single pie if we can't make it

I'll sharpen up the ax to cut our tree

Let the little ones make all the decorations

And get back to the way it used to be

Let's have christmas like mama used to make it

Back before we all had it made

Let's spend time spending love instead of money

Take a sleigh ride back into the good old days

For it's there that lies the strength of our family

The good lord intended it this way

So this year let's do our best not to fake it

Let's have christmas like mama used to make it

Let's call uncle ed to tune that old piano

It's been too long since we've all sang silent night

Let the rest of the world have it their way

But this year we're gonna do it right

Let's have christmas like mama used to make it

Back before we all had it made

Let's spend time spending love instead of money

Take a sleigh ride back into the good old days

For it's there that lies the strength of our family

The good lord intended it this way

So this year let's do our best not to fake it

Let's have christmas like mama used to make it

Let's have christmas like mama used to make it
