It's times like this I wish my family drank.
We all stare blankly at the TV screen.
My aunt turns slyly to me and asks if I have a boyfriend.
I tell the truth, no, not yet.
'Cause I can't bring you home for Christmas
Can't put your presents under the tree
Instead, they'll be tucked away in a closet,
Just like my family wants me to be.
I've still gotta hide you from my momma,
Even though we're tryin' to be more honest.
She told me once before that I'd kill my grandfather,
So I've still gotta try, keep my secret.
Oh, I can't bring you home for Christmas.
Can't put your presents under the tree
Instead, they'll be tucked away in a closet,
Just like my family wants me to be.
Instead, they'll be tucked away in a closet,
Just like my family wants me to be.
