VS1)
I've shopped at every store in town
To fill my Christmas list
I've laid awake nights wondering is there anyone I've missed
I've stood in line just to buy gifts I can't afford
Spent all I've got, but so what
That's what Christmas is for

CHORUS)
That's what Christmas is for, that's what Christmas is for
Family and friends acting like kids
That's what Christmas is for

VS2)
Well, it's Christmas Eve around the tree
Excitement in the air
Mama brought some apple pie for everyone to share
And that chocolate fudge sure is good I think I'll have some more
Well, I might gain weight but pass the plate
That's what Christmas is for

CHORUS)
That's what Christmas is for, that's what Christmas is for
Family and friends acting like kids
That's what Christmas is for

BRIDGE)
Now, it's time to put the kids in bed
But before it gets too late
Let's take a moment to remember why we celebrate

CHORUS

TAG)
Family and friends acting like kids that's what Christmas is for
