Need a Little Time Off for Bad Behavior - David Allan Coe

Haul out the holly Put up the tree before my spirit falls again Fill up the stocking I may be rushing things but deck the halls again now For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute Candles in the window, carols at the spinet Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute I need a little Christmas now Oh, haul out the holly Put up the tree before my spirit falls again Fill up the stocking I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again now For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute Candles in the window, carols at the spinet Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute It hasn't snowed a single flurry, but Santa dear we're in a hurry, so Climb down the chimney Put up the brightest string of lights I've ever seen Slice up the fruit cake It's time we've hung some tinsel on the evergreen bough For I've grown a little leaner, grown a little colder Grown a little sadder, grown a little older And I need a little angel sitting on my shoulder I need a little Christmas now Oh, climb down the chimney It's been a long time since I felt good neighborly Slice up the fruit cake It's time we've hung some tinsel on the evergreen bough For we need a little Christmas right this very minute Candles in the window, carols at the spinet Yes, we need a little Christmas right this very minute We need a little Christmas now We need a little Christmas now (We need a little Christmas, yes we need a little Christmas) We need a little Christmas now Hey

"Need A Little Love" (feat. Sheryl Crow) When the darkness leaves you lonely Or the world tries to push you away When your sky is looking troubled You can count on me cause I'm gonna stay Put your worries in my pocket I got a key so we can lock it I swear that I wont let them escape Love its always worth it Love everyone deserves it It's the friend that you holds you're hand When nobody understands Love it wants to heal you love And see the real you But you have to open up when you need a little love If there something you're in need of You only have to let me know I've got a shoulder you can lean on And I'm always right up the road Put your fears in my pocket I've got a key so we can lock it You know I wont let them escape Love its always worth it Love everyone deserves it It's the friend that you holds you're hand When nobody understands Love it wants to heal you love And see the real you But you have to open up when you need a little love Every night when your heart is praying for peace From the noise in your head There's a light that is yours to keep That's brighter than all the rest Love its always worth it Love everyone deserves it It's the friend that you holds you're hand When nobody understands Love it wants to heal you love And see the real you But you have to open up when you need a little love Need a little love Ohh Yeah Need a little love
