The weatherman says
we can count on snow tonight
The hills will glisten
in a blanket of white
And down in this valley
in a little country home
The family has all gathered in
there’s a whole lot going on

It’s Christmas in the country
and everybody’s home
Can you believe another year
has already come and gone
Everybody’s telling me
recalling days gone by
The stars shine down
this heavenly light
It’s a Merry Christmas
in the country tonight

The kids will hang their stockings
by the fireplace again
Anticipating the surprises and then
The gifts received and given
will fill their hearts with cheer
Wish this Christmas spirit
could last throughout the year

It’s Christmas in the country
and everybody’s home
Can you believe another year
has already come and gone
Everybody’s telling 
recalling days gone by
The stars shine down
this heavenly light
It’s a Merry Christmas
in the country tonight

Oooh it’s Christmas in the country
and everybody’s home
Can you believe another year
has already come and gone
Everybody’s telling,
recalling days gone by
The stars shine down
this heavenly light
It’s a Merry Christmas
in the country tonight
