Dey 'll be banjo pickin',
Dancin' all night th'oo.
Dey 'll be lots o' chicken,
Plenty tu'ky, too.
Drams to wet yo' whistles
So 's to drive out chills.
Whut I keer fu' drizzles
Fallin' on de hills?
Jes' keep t'ings a-hummin'
Spite o' col' an' showahs,
Chris'mus day 's a-comin',
An' all de week is ouahs.
