A coal mining Christmas is what I was used too
Remembering the smells of Grandma's Christmas stew

We all got a little Something for Christmas. I thought a lot at the time. 
Even though it may have cost no more than a dime 

That was the time of year the boys got new overhauls
The girls all giggly over new dresses and the decorations in the halls

I was as happy as I could be
Because of God’s Love and Joy living in me
