Never been out there myself
But aunt Ruby bakes some bread at least
And sends it east
To help the celebration
Got an uncle in Los Angeles
Beverly Hills to be precise
Quite a way from Oklahoma
But then so's New York
Now ain't that nice?
chorus:
It's a big country
Merry Christmas everybody
Just a word from me
and them to say we're fine
Got some cousins up in *Bowsley*
Raising sheep out in the snow
Merry Christmas girls, you're crazy
But I guess you know
Got a niece down in Virginia
The card's a picture, how she's grown
It's your uncle calling, angel
Can you put your mama on the phone?
(repeat chorus)
