Verse 1
It’s Christmas at the honkytonk, the lights are strung up high,
Cowboys in their Wranglers, under mistletoe they try.
Santa’s hat’s a little crooked on the bartender’s head,
And Bubba’s telling everyone, “I’m Santa’s helper” again.
Old Bubba’s got Grandma out two-steppin’ to the beat,
The band blares “Jingle Bells” with a little extra heat.
You’d think it’d be a “Silent Night,” but honey, not tonight,
In this honkytonk Christmas, we’re raising merry right!
Chorus
Forget “Silent Night,” we’re rockin’ till the dawn,
With whiskey, wreaths, and Wranglers on, we’re singing every song.
Eggnog shots and mistletoe, the holiday’s just right,
In this honkytonk Christmas, it’s a Not-So-Silent Night!
Verse 2
Deck the halls with cowboy boots and Christmas chili, too,
Santa’s on a Harley, and he’s got a flask or two.
Carolers? No, that’s just Joe on “Grandma’s Reindeer Ride,”
Off-key as can be, but we’re all here for the night.
Christmas lights on antlers, Rudolph’s sweater lookin’ rough,
Red and green bandanas hang where tinsel’s not enough.
No cookies in the corner, but we got spiked cider near,
And every cowboy’s beltin’ out with holiday cheer.
Chorus
Forget “Silent Night,” we’re rockin’ till the dawn,
With whiskey, wreaths, and Wranglers on, we’re singing every song.
Eggnog shots and mistletoe, the holiday’s just right,
In this honkytonk Christmas, it’s a Not-So-Silent Night!
Bridge
The only “silent” thing’s the auction for last year’s Santa hat,
Everything else is pure holiday, and we’re good with that.
The tree’s topped with a boot, it’s a holiday sight,
Christmas at the honkytonk, under neon lights.
Verse 3
So here’s to rowdy holidays with every friend in sight,
Jingle all the way down here, and hold on tight.
From the cowboys to the cowgirls, we’re toasting one and all,
‘Cause Christmas at the honkytonk’s the best way to deck the hall.
Chorus
Forget “Silent Night,” we’re rockin’ till the dawn,
With whiskey, wreaths, and Wranglers on, we’re singing every song.
Eggnog shots and mistletoe, the holiday’s just right,
In this honkytonk Christmas, it’s a Not-So-Silent Night!
Outro
Yeah, it’s Christmas down at the honkytonk, loud and full of cheer,
With a Not-So-Silent Night, we’ll be back again next year.
So grab your hat, raise a glass, and make it a rowdy sight,
This honkytonk Christmas, under neon lights.
